Is the Western Digital WD1002FAEX Caviar Black 1 TB 7200 RPM Internal Hard

And would you recommend it?  I don't want to cause myself complications with
another dud drive. :-(

I've had a Blue series WD5000AAKS-00V1A0 single platter drive in production in my SOHO MX mail server for almost 16,000 hours now, 1.8 years. This is a 500GB 3.5" SATA2 drive, 7.2k, 16MB cache. I'm pleased with it so far. Primary workload is low rate random IO--Postfix queue file and Dovecot mbox. 250GB of it is not even partitioned yet. In a nutshell, light duty use. Relevant S.M.A.R.T. data:

Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0
Reallocated_Sector_Ct   0
Seek_Error_Rate         0
Power_On_Hours          15639
Power_Cycle_Count       50
Temperature_Celsius     26
Reallocated_Event_Count 0
Offline_Uncorrectable   0
UDMA_CRC_Error_Count    0
Multi_Zone_Error_Rate   0
