WD 3TB My Book Disassembly

20 November 2010 - 09:45 AM

I just got back from Best Buy with a WD3TB My Book for $199. Since I could not find the OEM drive, and the My Book is cheaper anyway, I thought I would just take it apart for the single drive. I will post more as I complete more use cases, including the storage pool for WHS v1 with Diehard helping me.

Below are the ATTO stats:

WD 3TB over USB 3.0

EVGA B Stock

17 July 2010 - 09:36 AM

I just wanted to tell everyone about EVGA B Stock. These are products that have been recertified, tested and have a 90 day warranty.

I just purchased:
EVGA X58 SLI for $80
nForce 730a for $34
nForce 730a for $40

If you are looking for quality boards for testing or for that second rig these are great!

The shipping is usually free and they ship from Anaheim, California.

Let me know what your experiences have been with EVGA B Stock.
