Is this a good hard drive?

I do need the size, but the price is frighteningly low and I was wondering if anyone has any input... reliability and whatnot.

Thank you

Reliability issues on a per brand basis went out the window years ago. Now they all tend to last, under normal usage, anywhere between three and five years, brand name not an issue.
