Excellent out of the box performance, Impressive in-house developed controller, Small footprint, Good software bundle, Backed by 5-year warranty,
Noticeable slower starting speed for write operation, Unusable paid features from Acronis True Image still get installed to your system
Much to our surprise, WD's in-house developed controller seems to be working really well. The highest temperature recorded during our test is at 68°C, which is a little warm compared to the Plextor M9Pe that is paired with it for the test, but we have yet...
