What's the difference between the WD1600BEVT and the WD1600BEVS? And what is the significance of the six digits that Western places after the WD1600BEVT and the WD1600BEVS designations? For instance, I am interested in replacing a WD1600BEVS-22VAT0....

Look at the WD spec sheet for model numbers. It's here: http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/library/other/2579-001028.pdf. If amazon blanks the web site, then search for "Model Number Format for OEM and Distribution Channels" and "Western Digital". You'll get to the site. So the 10th position (last character) is the Interface / Connector. S = SATA 3 Gb/s with 22-pin SATA connector or SATA 1.5 Gb/s with 22-pin SATA connector (Mobile); T = SATA 3 Gb/s with 22-pin SATA connector (Mobile). And for the digits following that, they say: Model Number Suffix - The model number suffix (characters to the right of the dash following the model number) is only for in-house use. So we don't know what it means. At least, I don't know!

I bought 3 Re-certified ones and have had no issues with 2 of them. The 3rd didn't work right but I call WD and a couple days later I had a new one delivered that worked great. Be sure to register them on the WD website.

Just so happens, when I purchased before, I bought 2 to save shipping, and still have the extra one still in the box. I see nothing on the box that says a type number. However there is a number on the box that says 63170A. If that means type A, I don't know. Also says series 440. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Great. Thank you! Did you get a chance to ask them why L32D1120 is now shown on their website? It's weird.

This is "beyond" the black edition...it is an (older) enterprise-class hard drive meant for use in a RAID array and 24/7 operation, hence the name RE3 - Raid Edition 3. WD1002FBYS is essentially identical in all specs to the WD1001FALS (Caviar Black): Both have dual processors, 32MB cache, 7200 rpm rotational speed, and SATA/300 interface. The difference is that FBYS is marginally faster with a 12.1 ms average access speed, and it does not go into extended recalibration/diagnostic cycles as the FALS does, thus not causing a disk drop-out when used in a RAID array. As far as SATA/300 drives go, the only thing in the Western Digital lineup to beat its performance is the VelociRaptor line.

&#65297;&#65296;&#65296;&#65296; version is a larger monitoring unit, where as 1300 model is a much smaller compact unit. Both of which does the same thing just matter of size.

It is the drive model number. Each hard drive has a different model number when manufactured.

I`m puzzled as to what 110,120, 126 negative sizes actually were. I have many different B & W negs from the 40`s,50`s and 60`s. Any way to tell them apart? thanks. Russ B.

Easier said than done , As best I can tell Fall 2006. I found this out online, the 1st letter and the next 2 numbers (of the serial number). in my case W86--8 for Aug. and 6 for 2006.Which usually means U have to buy it first. Next possibility I just though of call Amazon, maybe they can help. Although I doubt it, but it maybe worth a try. Hope this helps!!

As a general rule, when the part numbers are identical except for the last letter, especially from an A to a B, the change of the last letter is to indicate that a newer version has been released. This is much the same as software programs that have updates that are sequentially numbered. This is my experience as a maintenence professional but you could check with a parts professional for insight.

I too have the DW618B3 not the DWP611. I agree with Ralph Welsh, Jr's response.

I am about 90% sure you can. I think those trailing numbers are revisions. We often by "close" model numbers here at our computer repair shop. Every once in awhile one won't work, but more often than not they do. Another great way to check this out is to look on e Bay, and see what is being sold for your unit. Good luck!

Mine say MW600 11w28 and beside chinesse letters 1233-4432.4Now i am curious ...what is the difference?
2239543
I am not seeing a difference - the question visible to me does not indicate what "this" is referring too except for a picture of the box showing "ADVC110" so it looks like we are talking about the same thing.

Thank you for contacting us. I am not sure so I looked at other posts about this. It seems they are very close in performance but this stood out: "The other thing to keep in mind when choosing a drive is that Western Digital?s enterprise drives are meant to be constantly in use, 24/7. The consumer drives are rated for 300,000 load/unload cycles, whereas the enterprise drives are are rated for double that at 600,000 load/unload cycles. This means the enterprise drive is guaranteed to have a longer use-life than a consumer drive under identical conditions." Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

p/n: 9tn158-301 fw version: cc34 if Your looking to get one beware I bought 2 of these and both died within a year. both where used as extended storage drives. need a logic board lol?

Correct on the i5/7 number but not sure about that last digit. I read on other sites that the last digit corresponds to Windows 7 Home (1) or Professional (2). In discussions with B&H; they said the only difference was the OS but both have 128 gig SSD
