I have that exact model drive installed in my BWG3 rev2. I made it the master drive and the original 6gb drive the slave. It has only been in for about 5 months so I can't comment on longevity! But no signs of problems so far and I think that with drives, if it is a dud then that will show up early. Yes, I do know that drives can fail at any time, but I believe that, in general terms, if the first few months are trouble free then that is likely to remain so. Now I also know that some experiences will differ. ..........
