Great drive as long as you know what an OEM product means
This drive is probably not for you if you have no idea what Bulk/OEM means in the product title. It means that you’ll receive just the hard drive in a plain cardboard box - no fancy packaging, no manual, no screws and NO CABLES whatsoever. You can save a few bucks by getting this packaging if you are assembling your own machine (in which case the motherboard and power unit likely include the necessary cables), or if you are replacing a SATA drive. If you are adding a drive to your Dell or HP or whatever branded machine, you will likely need to buy a SATA data cable and possibly a SATA-IDE adapter power cable.
For me the drive works great out of the box. It’s a fast and moderately spacious drive at bargain basement price.
Update (5/20/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen. I also found some auctions for this item here.

Cool and quiet
I ordered one of these for an HTPC build. It’s very quiet which is important for an HTPC and cool which is important for longevity. The HDD in the Comcast Tivo DVR sitting next to it is much noiser. It’s also much quieter than the WD4000AAJS it replaced. I plan to order another one of these to replace the HDD in my office PC when I upgrade it to Windows 7.
The 320GB size seems to be the sweet spot in the lineup. The 250GB is only a few dollars cheaper. I think 70GB is worth an additional few dollars.
Highly recommended as a desktop HDD. I like the Caviar Green series for a server HDD.
