Western Digital WD Blue 4To SATA 3.5p PC 6 Gb/s HDD

Rs 14,999 paid, but received a defective product. It started clicking when plugged into my desktop on Day-0. It's called "click of death" when HDD has a mechanical failure. It was dead on arrival. Amazon refused to refund or replace as it does not qualify for returns. I tried explaining that the HDD is defective, but to no avail. Rs, 15,000 just gone; or so I thought. Now, went to the Western Digital Service center for warranty coverage. They said I will get it back in 7-10 days. One day full wasted travelling to the service center. After 10 days, I plan to go for holidays. It is a total mess. The product was received without any visible damage to the package. Imagine Amazon and WD colluding to get rid of defective product this way. Looking at reviews, I am not the first one to have received a defective HDD. See the video of the click of death sound. Its risky to buy non-returnable products from Amazon. Customer now has to run around, and at the en,d I will get a re-furbhished product.

This is my first 3.5' HDD in a very long time. Amazon dropped it off on the porch, was worried about how they handled it (did they toss the box onto the ground perhaps?). I was kind of against buying a drive online over going to a brick and mortar store because of the fear of it getting banged (drives don't like being hit or shaken). It came in the original unopened box that was in a thin bubble pack mailer. Bought it mainly as a place to store my hobby YouTube channel content (videos, and related media), as well as for future proofing as a long-term storage option. The drive was easy to install and set up. Just mount it within your case, plug in two cables. Then, for drives over 2TB (like the 4TB I bought) you need to manually format it to work in Windows. I've never done this before and it took me like 20 minutes of online research (the manuals WD gives access to doesn't show how to do this) and then a few clicks in Windows, and voila! A brand new formatted 4TB HDD. Ran CrystalDiskInfo and it seems there are no issues, and the drive is running very well. Very silent. It has double the read and write speed of the HGST 7200rpm drive I replaced it with (my old drive was starting to show pending sector counts and is several years old). Not sure if the HGST is SRM, though. It also has nearly double the read and write speed of the other 2TB 5400rpm 2.5 inch CRM drive on my PC right now, according to CrystalDiskInfo. I was surprised that although both are 5400rpm CRM drives, the WD Blue is significantly faster. I was able to copy ~300 GB of info in like 35 minutes. The WD Blue shows about 217 MB/s read sequential, 2.20 random. 213MB/s write sequential, 2.50 random. This is for 8GB files of the size I will normally be working with. Overall, I am pleased with the new WD Blue 4TB drive. It's silent, has surprising performance, and seems to be fully functional. Time will tell whether I got a lasting drive (they say that if your drive lasts a year it will probably last many years).

Great performance and a lot of storage. Not much to say, it's a hard drive, it'll work as expected and perform just as it always does. Put this in for bulk game storage cuz I'm running out, and still don't have any issues.
