This hard drive transformed my aging White MacBook 13'' circa 2006... The thing is still running in 2015 without any issues (knock on wood).

Western Digital Black wd5000bpkt

I've installed 6 of these in the last year. All in laptops that see lots of travel and gamer level use. No errors yet.

Fast; Quiet; Long warranty

None so far

Good stuff

A perfect choice for my PS3 80gb. After i did the backup of my data, i only formatted the new HD and plugged it into the console. It worked perfectly from the first time and it still works. No problem. The best choice if you want to increase the capacity of your console.

Had a batch of these fail

As great as these drives are supposed to be, I've had several fail on me recently. Out of the last 8 I've bought for customer laptops, 3 have failed so far within the last month, and this is a serious, catastrophic failure.

Great little drive!

This Western Digital is great for a laptop replacement or upgrade. 500gb, full 7,200 RPM, reliable, cheap and power efficient.. You can't ask for much more. You will notice a difference in your laptop's performance if you have a slower drive, and you won't lose battery life either.

TOSHIBA Stor.E Basics 500 Gb External Hard Drive - black

Brilliant. Easy to use, no set up just plug in and use. Loads of space. Small and compact but loads of space to store all my movies, music and back up files. Cant recommend enough!

Everything

Nothing to dislike

Data migration was a challenge

Hardest time was getting the current 160GB WD drive to clone over to the new WD drive. Tried MANY different products (CloneZilla/WD's cloning tool/Macrium Reflect) and various methods.

Fast performance; Quiet Operations

Difficult To Migrate Data; Wd 4k Formatting

Excellent Hard Drive

I have purchased about a half dozen of these for upgrades for clients and all have worked perfectly and have nearly doubled overall performance in day to day apps on the laptops.

As fast as it gets for a non-SSD drive

Not a SSD drive

Fast, but lots of vibrations

This drive is fast, but there's also a lot of vibration, even when the hard drive is idling. The WD Blue would have been a better choice for my plastic Macbook.
