Our take
If you're looking to expand your desktop storage with reliable, performance-oriented drives, this lot of three 1TB WD Caviar Black HDDs is a solid option. The 7200 RPM speed combined with a 32MB cache offers decent responsiveness for a mechanical drive, and the SATA II interface is widely compatible. I appreciate the listed features like hot swap support and low noise, which are always a plus for any internal drive. While SATA II isn't the absolute fastest interface available today, for bulk storage or RAID configurations in older systems, these provide good value and capacity per drive.
