That is bull crap advice. The WD5000AAKB drives work just fine in the 4200/4500.

Hi, just a quick update. I'm not trying to start with you, but you are wrong. I got different hard drives and it works like a champ now.
Maybe you had a newer version with the OS, and it had updated drivers that worked with these drives, but since I have an older version these simply don't work....at least they don't work well. Keep in mind, they work, but the OS has "issues" talking to them, hence the excellent transfer speed for a couple of seconds and then a slow down for about a minute, and so on. After an exhaustive google search I found that the info in the error logs pointed to a driver issue.
Again, I'm not trying to challenge you, I thank you for the help, but please consider asking people which OS version they have before telling them these drives will work (without hiccups).
On a different note, I need another drive sled and I can't locate any on ebay or anywhere else for that matter. Anyone know where I can score one for a decent price? Thanks!
