Western Digital Caviar SE16 500GB

If you are looking for more storage, then you’ll definitely want to take a look at Silent PC Review and their thoughts on the SE 16 500GB. Not only do they give you all the prevalent specs, but they also give you a rundown of the ambient noise the drive creates and compares it with others.

Western Digital came late to the game with their 500 GB drive, but finally introduced it early this year to a minimum of fanfare. Despite having been on the market for nearly six months, the drive has hardly been noticed by the usual large review and news sites. The attitude seems to be that this drive is just another 500 GB, 7,200 RPM drive of which nothing special is expected. Ho hum.
