The WD Green line of drives are all very quiet. I recommend them to all my friends as media storage/backup drives. The 1.5tb is no exception. The drive only gets warm to the touch during long file copies.

Well, this is fairly simple to review. What this hard lacks, that being that its speed is about 5400rpms rather than 7200rpms, it makes up with hard drive space and no issues. This hard drive was designed to be run primarily as storage, and that's what this thing does well.

Bought this for my drobo which has gotten close to full on the 3 drives I have currently. Works flawlessly for my use. I wouldn't use it as an OS drive.

I got 3 of these on sale a while ago because they were the most affordable hard drives then from a trustworthy company. No issues so far. Cool and quiet. 3 platter design. They are being used for storage so speed is not an issue.

These drives are great low power drives that throw minimal heat. i bought 4 of these drives to use in my mediasonic probox and they are on average 10 degrees C cooler than my WD black and Seagate drives. of course these arn't high performance drives, but they work great for storage operations such as use in a NAS.

Bought 4 of these drives to go into my Mediasonic 4bay enclosure on boxing day sale. So far not a single problem with the drives.

Bought one of these and am using it as the parity drive in my unRAID server. I've heard some bad things about the 1.5TB Seagate drives, so we'll see how this one holds up.
