i believe some of the earlier revisions had problems...

if you run into any problems WD has a great advance rma service :)
 
I've had multiple raptors since the 36GB versions, and now own a 74GB version. 0 problems with any of the drives. Of course if you take into consideration the additional heat of a 10krpm and prepare for it theres nothing to worry about. My P180 has plenty of airflow though :)
 
Don't buy it from Newegg, they don't ship drives according to manufacturer specs. ZZF does it right.
