Default Re: Newegg customers of WD drives beware!!!

What a bunch of crap. If you get the new Hitachi/IBM drives you should be thankful. They are a better drive.

By whose standards? The WD drive has a faster seek time, and in EXTENSIVE testing, we found them to be definitely faster. We've had nothing but great performance from them, and besides all that, IT'S NOT WHAT I ORDERED!!!!!!!!

IF Newegg had e-mailed or called and told me, "hey we're out of stock, is the IBM/HIT drive acceptable, that'd be one thing, but to simply substitute is bad business.

IF you run drive intensive applications, you'll see the difference, the WD is by far a faster performer.
