I have been having really bad computer problems and yesterday I went out and bought this to hopefully help. Since it was the newest thing in the house it is what I took a picture of for the something new challenge.

I can see the newness. It's definately new. Did you chose that lighting on purpose? Looks over brightened and looks like the color has been altered dramatically. However, I don't know what the original box looks like, so I guess it's not fair of me to just assume that. Maybe a better background might make this a bit more exciting. You kind of lose the top of the box into the background. The clarity is good, I like how you can read all the words. Good luck with the challenge.
I feel your pain. Just lost two Hard Drives on my server. Had to start from scratch. What good is redundency when failure is too? Nice shot. Perhaps could have been better beside the chassis of the machine as you make the switch, but I tend to like more dynamic photos from a subjective perspective.
I get it, it's a new harddrive to fix your computer problems. Good luck, hope you didn't lose any photos. How about a new CD burner in that picture too?
If you have a really low end camera, please ignore the rest of my comments and you have my sympathies...... Very grainy image with no appearant "reason" for it. A lack of details in the smaller writing on the packaging emphasizes this. The white of the box disappears into your background, I would politely suggest using a different background. 5 Swash
This is a nice attempt at a 'product' type photo... I do like the concept of the brightness and I can see where you were going with it. I would have preferred a little lower angle to give the box some added dimension, rather than being a flat, face on view.... The post processing here has taken a toll on the image as well. Whatever you have done to it has made a lot of visible jagged edges... possibly the sharpen filter... it has this effect when over used... :) - jmsetzler
