2 out of 5 eggsGood while it lasted

Pros: Worked well, when it did.

Cons: Bought this because it was a deal at the time I bought it and was hoping for reliability over speed for my use. Well only last 4 months before it died, just long enough for me to be stuck with a expensive paper wait. And new egg and WD looking at me with "you were warned" look, after buying "refurbished" item. Well I guess I learned my lesson and hopefully it will help others as well

1 out of 5 eggsOrdered 2 1 died within a couple months

Pros: They are fast and usually reliable, great price.

Cons: Failure rate is high and just as likely 1 month as 6 months.

Other Thoughts: I would stick with a new re4 if you are using these for a production use. Or even better, go with a Samsung spinpoint.

1 out of 5 eggsDOA

Pros: Inexpensive

Cons: I bought 3 units to replace 2 that had failed in a RAID configuration. Two (2) of the units were DOA. All off them were HP OEM versions that are not reported as Western Digital drives so WD utilities don't work. Needless to say that I'm returning all 3 of them. This is first time I have had bad luck with stuff from Newegg. I hope it's a one off.

4 out of 5 eggsNew Firmware Available

Pros: Cheap price, WD name underneath. No failures yet for me.

Cons: Apparent high incidence of failure and warranty only by OEM, meaning nothing outside of Newegg's optional add-on warranty. Shipped with older firmware on drive.

Other Thoughts: A new firmware was available for mine. They shipped with HP3 on the firmware and the link below updates to HP5, which addresses some error codes and also operations.

1 out of 5 eggsBuyer Beware!

Pros: Drive seems to be working well enough...

Cons: This drive is a rebranded RE3, not supported by WD, It has no warranty on it all other than newegg's 30 day replacement.

Newegg lists the model number as WD1002FBYS, but its actual model number is GB1000EAMYC, which is an HP part number, it even has an HP label on it. Putting the drives serial number in to WD's warranty checker comes back with No Limited Warranty. WD's site explains "Product was originally sold to a system manufacturer. Please contact the system manufacturer or the place of purchase for warranty service."

Other Thoughts: Newegg states this drive has a 90 day warranty, but thats just not true. Fault on this lies with Newegg. Newegg needs to make it known upfront exactly what people are buying, period.
