16Gb 1Tb Desktop Computer

Replaced internal 1tb 5400 rpm drives (3) in desktop computer. Immediate increase in system speed. Increased storage capacity is very welcome.

The Western Digital 1TB Desktop Performance Caviar Black HDD Retail Kit (WD1003FZEX) is a quality internal computer hard drive. The B&H store sells this drive at a very reasonable price, and provides fast shipping. I've used it on a refurbished desktop computer and expect to get over five years of service. I plan on purchasing more of these dives to provide a second data drive and a portable external hard drive this I can depend on. There are no negatives about this drive.

I replaced the two 2TB drives in my desktop computer with two 1TB 850 PRO drives and I can't believe the vast improvement in the performance in my PC. Boot time went from about 2 minutes to completely load Windows 7 (64 bit) and all the start-up stuff to less than 30 seconds. While these drives are not the cheapest ones out there, the specs and warranty are worth it. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to catch lightning in a bottle.

they have worked seamlessly so far on my DVR which had a 1TB previously and on my desktop computer which had only a single 250GB drive.

100% happy with this. Incredibly fast with the 16gb of RAM and 1TB SSD, and, of course, the M1. The only drawback (other than high price) with many Apple products is there is zero upgradability, so it doesn't pay to cheap at the time of purchase. 16GB RAM and the 512GB SSD are the minimum I'd recommend as you can't add RAM or internal storage later.

My laptop is running 16GB of RAM, an i7 processor and a 1TB hard drive. �(Due to the size, it was slow - 5400 rpm.) �I wanted an SSD when I bought the laptop 4 years ago, but prices of SSD were sky high if you could find them. �This is a much more reasonable price. �If you are maxed out on RAM, this is the next upgrade to look add - the loading and saving process is so much faster and reliability substantially higher as there are no moving parts. �It breathes new life into Windows based units!

Heard all the buzz about this new M1 Chip from Apple, so since I do quite a bit of 4k Video editing for my clients, thought I would compare a M1 16gb/1TB version to my 2017 Macbook Pro i7 with 16gb/1TB. The difference is night and day, this M1 chip runs circles around the older Macbook Pro. I don't have any benchmark numbers to throw at you in backing up my claim, you can find those on the internet. One thing I noticed right away is the fan hasn't come on yet and stays cool - under the same tasks as I did before, the older one would get hot rather quickly processing 4k video and turn the fan on. The battery life is a game changer, I am able to go all day editing photos/videos for clients and upload on my hotspot while enroute to the next job without plugging in. With my older 15 Inch Macbook pro, I would need to plug it in every 2-3 hours. I can say as a business owner who deals with photos/videos on the daily, this new M1 chip is more than capable of the task and at a better price point than the $2400+ 16 inch models or previous generation Macbooks.

I upgraded to this model from a 2011 model with only 16gb of RAM. With this unit I doubled the RAM, and upgraded to the 1TB SSD. It's exactly what I needed to be able to process a large number of photos in Photoshop. This model is considerably quieter than my previous, and not quite as hot. I did have to purchase an adapter to connect it to my Thunderbolt display, but that has worked perfectly as well. I have nothing negative to say, it's perfect!

Best desktop computer I had yet

Excellent compact desktop computer.
