My personal experience with Western Digital HDs is that they are unreliable and prone to configuration problems. I consider them, at best, a hobbiest HD.
They're the winmodem of hard drives, designed for M$ windoze. WD provides M$ (and Sun) with drivers to do the work of the missing drive hardware. Note that WD calls their drives "EIDE", while everyone else is committed to the ATA standards. -- "...[B]e quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry...."
