[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1326237, member: 24160"] Quite serious. I've had them seem to boot just fine, but as soon as you're booted and click on just about anything it could take a minute to 7 minutes or longer to do anything. I've had 2 WD Green drives brand new do this in the last year - one within the first 2 weeks and the other lasted about 9 months. WD was pretty good though and had a replacement at my door in 48 hours after an email. This seems to be happening more often now than the dreaded clicking noise we all came to recognize for many years. [/QUOTE]
