WD Caviar SE16 drives combine 16 MB cache with 3 Gb/s transfer rate for lightning-fast performance in demanding desktop and workstation applications. Technologically advanced acoustics minimize noise and cool drive operation and enhanced reliability features help protect the drive and the data stored on it.
Key Features
Top performance for Windows Vista - WD Caviar SE16 SATA and EIDE drives are certified for Windows Vista and are top performers on the Windows Vista Experience Index.
16 MB Cache - Bigger cache means faster performance. A massive 16 MB cache combined with advanced acoustic and power-reducing technologies make these ultra-fast drives the perfect solution for the fully loaded PC.
Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) - The latest generation of WD Caviar SE16 drives employs PMR technology to achieve even greater areal density.
IntelliSeek™ - Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise and vibration.
SecurePark™ - Parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved non- operational shock tolerance.
StableTrac™ - The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking, during read and write operations. (750 GB only)
Ideal For
Designed for use in the fastest PCs on the market, including high-performance business computers and multimedia or gaming systems. Perfect for Windows Vista.

I bought this to go along with my new build and I am happy with it. I got this for around $72 and it was worth every penny for a 640GB drive. Runs quiet and boots up in less than 20 seconds on my core i7 rig. It doesn't come with cables but that's the same for all OEM hard drives.

This drive works great; I chose it because I only buy Western Digital Hard drives, and on sale this one offered the best price to feature ratio. It's fast, reliable, fairly quiet, and had a much greater capacity than was needed for this build.

Seeing the price point of the WD Blacks, this is not a bad option either. These drives are quiet and fast - must be platters of 320. Impressive drives that continue to do well...WD has a fairly impressive record and seem to be on top of the ball compared to other brands now.

Very nice drive. Storage wasn't the issue when I selected this drive - it was simply a matter of bang:buck. The speed is decent, and it is surprisingly quiet. I didn't even bother fiddling with the AAM setting to reduce seek noise. My case does have a semi-soft mounting system though.

Bought this as a main drive for my system. SSD's are still a little pricey. And this thing has great speed, not too expensive, and has been pretty reliable.
