Nice Drive

My system was shutting down, intermittently. I suspected that I was having hard drive issues. That was confirmed when I couldn't boot any longer and got the Blue Screen of Death. Tech Support was very helpful in pinpointing and confirming that the issue was my hard drive. I was told that the new drive that I am purchasing was a exactly the same as my original drive. It wasn't, but it is equivalent to my original. My original was a Seagate. The drive I was sent is a Western Digital. Easy installation and set-up. The drive is performing, as expected, since I received it, about two weeks, ago. Maybe it's just me, but I am very literal person. If you say 'exactly,' then I am expecting 'exactly.' A better word might have been 'equivalent.' All in all, it was one of the better Tech Support/Customer Service experiences with any company.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am using the task manager more often with this hard drive to shut down nonresponsive programs than I did previously before my old hard drive died.
It was relatively easy to install using the online instructions.
