Of course you can. It won't make your disk unusable.

Can anyone provide feedback on the Caviar Green WD10EADS?
Is it suitable for gaming and other normal usage?

Scandisk? Sounds like an ancient computer if you're using Windows 98 or others with scandisk. Most probably your HDD is on its last legs. Did you try the full test for bad sectors?

Modern HDDs should hit at least 30 MB/s write speed and well over 80 MB/s in best case. If you're using an ancient computer, you'll need to find a PATA HDD replacement. But you should also consider upgrading to something more modern because the rest of the hardware might eventually show its age.

If you want gaming which means loading or heavy I/O, go for Caviar Black. Greens are meant for storage as it has the lowest idle power usage amongst the 3 version. (Black>Blue>Green) performance wise and vice-versa for power saving. Of course, this exclude the mighty Raptors blush.gif

Then again, as some mentioned. Even the Green Caviars blows most pre-500/platter tech HDD off its behinds rclxm9.gif

RM370? Are you sure it's the Home version? With E-Sata and Firewire? It is cheap then! since now everywhere i've seen it's about 415+

With the Velociraptor, they can actually reach both of those groups (since the drive is both quiet and low power) as well as the traditional power user to whom the Raptor series has always been marketed. That a drive can be the fastest, quietest, and lowest power desktop model available is quite a feat. We've never had a triple crown winner before. It's a major achievement.

Too bad the Velociraptor lacks in capacity and that SSDs are better at everything except capacity and, for now, price.

WD10EADS uses three 333 MB platters. WD20EADS uses four 500 MB platters.
