I have had great luck with WD so I ordered this drive to replace the drive in my mother-in-laws laptop that was failing. She complained that her HP laptop was getting slow, so I suspected malware. So I first ran some hardware tests and discovered the hard drive was taking an inordinate amount of time to read/write data. Not sure why, so I replaced it with this drive and reinstalled Windows 7 and Office 2010. The expected original performance has returned. It was the drive. It's working great!

Used apricorn SATA 2.5" upgrade kit to clone my failing 60gB drive, this is working great. Of course the true test of a drive is how well it is working in 5 to 10 years, not how well it works out of the box.
I have one more 80Gb to replace that is about 7years old and is getting a little full so will buy another of these after I save up for it.

Finally got a second of these for my now 8yr old drive. Used Apricorn to clone again, but was getting a lot of errors, so did Chkdisk and defrag on old drive - didn't verify results, then cloned it. Short story, the chk/defrag had screwed up something so ended up with two unreadable disks. Did recovery on old drive which wipes all data, fought with 8yr old web browsers (recovery puts back what came on the computer) then got Recuva (free) to read cloned drive data back to old drive, cleaned things up a bit, then recloned and now have the 500G working. Lost some data, two days, and some programs but nothing too extreme, just happy to have all the basics working, and not losing some recent work files that hadn't been backed up yet. My easy first experience made me careless. Word to the wise, just make sure your original is actually working before cloning!

Its a drive... and WD drives I have always had problems with... and as with past WD drives this one is making that faint "click" noise that rips at your soul thinking its about to have a head to disk crash...

however in the past I have called WD about the noise and was told it is normal for some drives to have this noise...

I bought this drive to replace my toshiba laptop drive cause it was cheap... and right now money is tight

I was pleasantly surprised by its thin form. I guess it could be used for many thin pads or puters. Its really quiet yet fast. It boots up my laptop much fasted than my old Seagate Momentus, which died only just past two years warranty. Thinner also means more cooling space for the drive. So if the price and size fits you, this is the product you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exact replacement for Asus x501u.
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2014
Verified Purchase
My Asus notebook came with a Seagate Momentus Slim SATA 2 hard drive and it crashed 6 months after buying it. Rather than spend $20 in shipping, weeks without a computer, and hours of changing passwords, I decided to ignore the warranty process and buy a different brand instead. This hard drive has the same exact specifications as the original in my asus x501u. Most importantly, it is 7mm thick. A 9.5mm will not fit in a Asus x501u.

When looking for a replacement, I came across the Seagate drive and noticed a bunch of people complaining about it crashing. I've only has this hard drive for a week, but I I'm confident that it will last (at least longer than 6 months). I've now had 2 completely unannounced hard drive failures in my 20 years of computer ownership and both of them were Seagate. You would be smart to choose Western Digital over Seagate.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfecto para PS3 super slim

Compré el disco duro para mi ps3 super Slim de 12G, ya que apenas podía tener nada. He de decir que la instalación ha sido muy fácil, tan solo compré el soporte original de sony (unos 10€) para acoplarlo perfectamente. Los datos guardados en la play se pasan automáticamente al nuevo disco duro, así que no hay que hacer nada más. Ya llevo unas semanas y ha sido todo un acierto, va a la perfección y el precio en amazon es lo mas barato que he encontrado, asi que lo recomiendo.

My Dell Studio 1558 was fitted with 500GB Seagate Momentus which developed bad sectors (unable to boot - BOOTMGR missing). Laptop was well used but never dropped or rough handled.

Read reviews of different drives - some faster at some tasks, slower at others. Faster and larger drives tend to have higher power consumption. I trust WD and this drive is energy efficient and reasonable performance, also higher shock tolerance because designed for tablet use. Overall good value for money. Was able to recover data from old drive when installed in a USB enclosure. Very easy to fit yourself.
