I have always had good luck with WD hard drives (according to website, that's what these are.)

#5, its a byproduct of fixed costs and economies of scale. WD has the largest market share and produces the most drives. It's inefficient to run their manufacturing facilities at less than 100% so they make extra and sell them as off-brands.
