Western digital black 2tb internal hard drive

Granted it was not secured into a case like it should but the Vibration Control Technology featured in this family of drives probably would have reduced that as it is only present in the 2 TB and up drives, so my drive being the 1 TB variant, it doesnвЂ™t have it.

So if you donвЂ™t have a SATA III capable motherboard, donвЂ™t worry about it.Д¬ons: The only con that I can think of is very minor but while sitting on a motherboard box, the vibration produced by the hard drive was more than I expected and was more than the previous model also tested on the same box. I also tested the new drive on a SATA II connection and as I figured the results were within a margin of error as some values were higher and some were lower than when on the SATA III connection. I tested the previous model of this drive being the WD1003FAEX from 2010 vs. (Older model was WAY louder, heard it constantly)

The only time I ever heard it was when it went into its standby phase and I could hear it spin down as it was shutting off. Very quiet, never made a sound while in use.
