[QUOTE="MacDulles, post: 1611635, member: 334921"] I was referring to the bad reputation they had a few years ago which chased me over to all Hitachi's which was then bought out by one raid-box producing company or another. Glad to get the in-the-trenches report on the Black Models though. Will reconsider as the drive, now going bad, in my 5 year old and counting early 2009 iMac, will have been a WD and it has had a regular daily workout for 5+ years, but then that was of a 2008-2009 vintage mass-ordered by Apple for their Macs. Will research WD's current reputation then and give them a 2nd look. [/QUOTE]
