Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Posted: May 26, 2007 Type: User Review This is a great Terabyte drive, but note potential compatibility issues

This is a great Terabyte disk, but note that the 7K1000 has documented compatibility issues with some early first generation SATA controllers. I hit this on a VIA 8237 controller. Hitachi note issues with the VIA 8237A chipset, Marvell Gen 1...

Review from a shopper who 'Loved it'
From: Reviewed by: nicmart Posted: Aug 29, 2008 Type: User Review "Has worked flawlessly for more than a year"

Unlike the 1TB Lacie I also own, which houses the same Hitachi drive, this external drive has performed perfectly. Updated on Aug 29, 2008 It seems like the people having problems with this drive use Windows. I use it with a Mac.

I thought that this hard drive was very neat when I first purchased it. I liked how Hitachi made an external 1TB hard drive so compact. However, there's a problem with the stability of this external hard drive. At the slightest movement of the hard d

Huge capacity, but not very quiet or good value The Deskstar 7K500 is Hitachi??s current flagship and offers 500GB of storage on five 100GB platters. This puts it at a slight disadvantage to the Maxtor and Seagate, which both have 125GB platter
