If you search the forum you will see quite a few WD HDD owners with the 1.5Tb EARS version having problems. You'll also see many not.
One reported that using the WDutil utility in DOS and setting the park time to 30 secs helped IIRC. Anyway search for the thread and you'll see. A200 [No fan-metal case]: 3.5" HDD, HDMI, WN150 C200: USB (Apps), 2.5" HDD, BD iHOS104.37, HDMI, CAT6 Network: A100, W7, HP ProCurve 1400-8G, Netgear GS-605, Synology CS407 4Tb, Thompson 780v5, CAT6 |

RE: A200 WD 1.5TB WD15EARS problem partition empty
I had multiple problems with 1.5Tb WD disks. I upgraded my NAS (1Tb's) with a new one (1.5Tb's). It looked like it was working it copied, responded and the monitoring tools worked fine. But when trying to address the thing, it failed within 5 seconds. I basically got out the easy way returned the NAS and waited for the Flacky batches to pass by. I now have 2Tb disks which never gave an problems at all.
