Raptor X WD1500AHFD In Action

This is a brief video of the Western Digital Raptor X WD1500AHFD 150 GB. I used different camera angles and positions so that you can have an idea of what it looks like and also listen to the read/write of the head. Camera and my reflections on hard drive were included to give an idea of the material of the platters. Enjoy!

@ThemPPoints Showing your ignorant and immature side was a bad idea. Next time keep it off YouTube.

Designing a hard drive, with a window, is not as easy as you might think.

@Monkeypumper420 You should always assume that your drive will fail and your data has to be backed up somewhere else - this is the ONLY true way to trust your data. Retail/OEM I have seen both fail within seconds, minutes, hours, months, years. What you do say does make sense, but won't guarantee that one drive will fail faster than the other.

@Sauber9 Correct.

@Monkeypumper420 - I've had the same experience with OEM or Retail. All my drives are OEM and I have had some of them for over 5 years. My newest drives are all OEM on my file server and have been performing like champs for quite a while now. To further support what I am saying, of the hundreds of PCs I have built, most of the drives have been OEM and I have no reported failures.
