Any WD800BB users out there? Are you happy or suggest something else?

I need to get a drive ordered this evening. I'm seriously considering the Western Digital WD800BB. If you have the drive, are you happy with it? If you have any other suggestions, please let me know. Looking for a 7200 RPM 60-80 GB drive for gaming. System will be OC'd.

Thanks in advance! 🙂

yo indy, i have worked in a busy pc shop for some time, had more western digital failures that all other brands combined
maxtor , fujitsu, seagate are my favorites
i grew up in indy
 
I have a WD1000BB. Nice drive. Relatively fast, relatively quiet, a little hot. In my case, it was by far the most bang for the buck ($125 after $100 mail-in rebate at Sam's right before Christmas). Still, that said, I think most of the drives around that class are just as good. Maxtor D740X's and Seagate Barracuda IV are equally good choices. The Maxtor has better seek rates, and the Barracuda is quieter.
