if you need speed, then here it is.
9 October 2012 
i needed high-speed, efficient hardware, and with this purchase, the speed issue was solved. I've never encountered anything more lightning-fast, fitting the name of my favorite band's new album (Velociraptor). I'd like to note that despite such speeds, the heat and noise remain within thermal and acoustic comfort levels.
speed, speed, speed. Compatibility with both SATA II and SATA III, no overheating (a unique design feature).
the price matches the performance.

Not bad in its segment.

Fans of quiet and steadiness might be disappointed by this option. However, if you need a fast machine and have a certain amount of money, the WD6000HLHX is definitely worth considering.
Honestly, I was more pleased with the durability potential of this hard drive than its performance speed. With 10,000 rotations per minute, the heat generated by the drive is almost incompatible with long-term use. That's why the additional large-sized heatsink installed here is really on point.
An amount of 600 GB might be too small for some users. The problem can be solved by installing a second cheap large-capacity drive.

great model, I really liked it

I was building a computer, needed powerful hardware for working with video editors, editing, and splicing video. This hard drive fit perfectly. The capacity is just right, and the speed is amazing.
Impressed by the performance speed, cooling is good, operates quietly, can be installed in both laptops and desktop computers.
