It should be illegal in the US or anywhere for these Drives to be sold as New when they are clearly pulls from OEM machines and thus Western Digital will NOT warranty them. They are selling these at a new price with third party sellers making up the bulk of sales promoting them as having a warranty...

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Quiet; Reliable

It is very easy to install it took 35 mins to be formatted (All data have been backup on a MAXDRIVE (system type must be FAT32) Original PS3: Automatic Install and Format Slim PS3: Need a USB Stick (1 GB or Greater) with a latest system update to install & format Overall: 5 Stars ^v^

The Scorpio Blue isn't the world's first 750GB laptop hard disk, but it's among the first with a standard thickness of 9.5m rather than the chunkier 12.5mm. This may not sound like much, but such a disk can fit the vast majority of laptops whereas only a small number of models can take the thicker...

Always liked these drives. Bought this one as a storage drive for my fathers laptop so he could installs a msata ssd in the laptop as well. Not much to say for these drives they are reliable and work every time.

This hard disk is working properly. I am satisfied with its performance. So far, there is no bad cluster. Everything I copied to it has been done properly. So, I think I get what I want.

This hard drive was purchased to upgrade my PS3 console since I had run out of room for my games. I had no issued swapping out the drives and did not see any issues with loading all my information to this new drive. I've been running without problems for 3 weeks now. All is great so far.

I benchmarked this drive, using Crystal Disc Mark, at 88 MB/sec Sequential Read speed and 90 MB/sec Sequential Write speed with up to 4 GB file size in the mid sector of the drive. Very respectable speed for a budget drive.

I bought this hard drive because it was the largest of the budget hard drives; When I purchased it, speed was a secondary concern; Storage was my primary concern; When I pulled the old hard drive out of my laptop I discovered that it was also a Western Digital Blue hard drive from the Scropio line.

Not the fastest hard drive available in its price range; 8 MB, very low cache for a hard drive; Only 5400 RPM

Slapped it in, installed Windows 7, running great thus far...

This drive was meant to be a replacement for the C drive in my laptop which was getting close to capacity as I am a Photographer. This particular drive was one of two recommended by my computer tech.
