Sure.  We have one in the machine called "ddsw1", which is where this post
comes from.  Working with a WD1006V/SR2 controller.  The drive itself was

I can't complain about it at all.  This is the fourth or fifth unit I've had
experience with, and all have been good solid performers.

You do need an RLL controller for it.  Get a good one (I recommend the
WD1006, although some people disagree with me on this one).
