Just know that this drive doesn't come with Segate's G-Force SMS to detect if your device is in a freefall. That feature only comes on the 500 GB ST9500420ASG2 and the 250 GB ST9250410ASG2.I ordered mine elsewhere, but I still can't wait to get it in my 2011 MacBook Pro's current HD slot. I had forgotten how slow these stock 5400 RPM drives are!

I used this HDD on my MacBook Pro instead of the original one. I expected it to be much faster as it's 7200RPM. But that's not the case.Speed is ok while accessing data files, but it still takes some time when launching "heavy" applications.My only problem now is trying to launch BootCamp on vmware Fusion (Win Vista on BootCamp runs great on its own). I still need to get that issue fixed!I didn't notice any noise from the drive as I read in some reviews, so I believe it's quite enough for whoever works in the night when there's silence surrounding him like I do.Great product and recommended for whoever is looking to expand his MBP's HDD.

I like seagate drives better than the western digital that compaq uses in their laptops. They have always failed after a few years (2 for 2).It has 500gb, a good value for the price. I would give it 5 stars, but all hard drives are subjedt to failure, so I will hold off the final judgement. Maybe soon we will have solid state or some other technology that is more reliablee. I have a USB drive that went through the washer and still works fine. It should not be impossible to invent a durable hard drive. Of course then they would not be able to sell you one every few years, but a company who puts one out will capture the market.

I'm only giving this three stars because I can feel the drive running. The old drive was a 5400RPM drive and maybee thats the difference as this one turns 7200RPM. Reguardless the drive works fine and has no bad sectors. There is no packaging or software with this drive but you really don't need any. I would reccomend purchasing the software to backup or swap (clone) your original drive if you are going to replace your current drive. I purchased Acronis True Image and it works well and easy to use. I have a Dell E1505 thats several years old. I needed more storage for pictures, music and movies. I would give it five stars if I didn't feel the thing spinning below my palm rests.

nice experience with Amezon n Seagate! the product is the best choice for my dell laptop inspiron E1505. the new internal hard dr (sata) was first cloned( copy of all data including operating system) from old hd with help of int. hd enclosure and seagate disk management wizard. Thereafter the old hd(80gb) is taken out from laptop and replaced new hd in it after after taking it from enclosure. the laptop has been started and has run as before, very simple. no hasard, no noise(any sort of humming), nothing hot ! now quite specious running smooth.Highly recommended.

Well just like others have said, It does start to die on you close to a year of having it. I started to get the warning that this drive was going to fail probably about 7 months after buying it. I feel like I have been ripped off for the price I bought it at on Jan 2010 but oh well what can you do. I just suggest that others go a different route. Thanks

Installed it with ease. Went from 60 gig to 500gig. There is a 12 minute video by Game Gear that gives you a step by step intructions that even includes how to back up and restore your existing info on your ps3. The old hard drive is a Seagate is a Momentus , so I feel more comfortable with an OEM swap. Amazon has the best price for a 500gb drive. Also, the same speed (5400 rpm) is recommended for replacement on the ps3.

This hard drive is plagued with issues. It has buggy firmware, that seagate updates every once in a while FAILING to resolve the issues with the drive. STAY AWAY

If you're looking to replace your ps3 hdd, then I recommend this one. It's 500 gb, which is more than enough for your ps3, it's compatible, and it fit just like the original ps3's. The only hard thing about hdd replacing is removing the screws and such, trust me when I say the ONLY way to do it is via pliers. I wasted $6 on a set of screwdrivers and they never worked, I ended up stripping them and could only get them out with pliers which were waaaay easier.Save yourself some trouble and buy pliers: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000G6CACO/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&s=power-hand-tools&psc=1

I bought this to replace the failing hard drive in my 4.5 year old Apple 2.17GHz Core Duo 17" MacBook Pro which originally was built to order with a 120GB 5400RPM hard drive.The original hard drive I discovered upon it's removal was also a Seagate Momentus drive. If it's good enough for Apple, it's good enough for me.Also for installation guides for Apple computers, go to iFixit.com.

I was looking foward to upgrade my PS3 hard drive (80G) and I found that the 500G drives were getting popular,the two choices I found were the Seagate Momentus and the Western Digital Scorpio Blue. The WD is a bit cheaper, and was the one with the most reviews, but I heard the Seagate is more reliable (3 yrs warranty for the WD VS 5 yrs for the Seagate). So I chose my destiny and bought the Seagate. This is the first time I buy a hard drive and install it myself, but the process is fairly simple and quick, I just had to follow the instructions I found on the web (back up your save files, power off, remove the cover, the blue screw, pull out the old drive, remove the 4 screws from the drive frame, and install the new one in reverse order).The problem was wen I tried to power up, the PS3 didn't recognize the new drive, and instructed me to insert a flash drive with the sistem files. So I downloaded them from the Playstation website and saved them on to the flash drive (in the ps3 folder I created, according to the printed instructions that came with the ps3 unit) and voila!, the hard drive could be formatted, and I begun to recover my files I backed up.Several reviews mention that this model is incompatible with the ps3, perhaps it is because the people who wrote them encountered the same problem as I, and didn't have the ps3 sistem files ready in the flash unit. I don't know if this problem occurs with the WD drive, but I think is not much trouble at all to fix it. A word of advice I found at the web is that the drive you choose has to operate at 5400 RPM, because there are faster (and more expensive) drives that use 7200 RPM, like the Seagate Barracuda or the WD Scorpio black, but it is rumored that they could be not compatible with the ps3, this could be wrong though.I have not found problems so far (installed it on oct 04), loading time is very fast, it is quiet, and most of all, BIG space, no more worries!

I gave this two stars because it failed well within warranty. Failing within warranty was a real pleasant surprise. Maybe it would have been okay in a glass box anchored firmly to a concrete foundation. Mechanical drives are almost universally short lived with laptops and the old school storage industry has never really developed a good solution.

I am not going to say there is something wrong with these drives, because at the end of the day I'm only one guy with a bad experience. I'll just offer my review here so that people get a full perspective. I have had two of these fail on me in a row (actually, the non G-sensing version, but they are otherwise exactly the same drive). Both failed offline SMART tests, so they have truly gone bad. When they were working, the drives were very fast and quiet, though, so I can certainly understand the high marks people give these drives when they first get them. However, after a month or so, the drives would start to have problems.I think it is fair to say that Seagate is really running these at the ragged edge of what is possible. While the transfer rates can approach 90 Mb/s at the edge of the platter--according to a few quick tests I ran--the transfer rate fluctuates greatly, and the SMART data shows a pretty constant stream of software-corrected (ECC) errors. In other words, you're not losing data, but the data coming off the drive is on the border of what is readable, such that the drive needs to rely on error correction and/or rereads (hence the fluctuating speeds) to get the data off. I base these conclusions on the fact that tests of data on the inside of the platter (which has much less speed) are much more reliable (albeit slower).If you do decide to get one of these, do yourself a favor and backup (which you should do anyways, because all hard drives are subject to fail at any time). Though if you REALLY want to do yourself a favor. Choose another brand.

Bought from Amazon, received it problem free.Recently installed this disk into my 15" MBP I7. Recent so I can't say much about reliability but so far so good. Installed effortlessly. Can't hear it unless I put my ear to the laptop and even then I'm not sure that I hear it.As for speed I can only compare it to my old 5400 rpm disk and it seems to boot quicker and access from a FW800 external disk is simply awesome.Have used momentus before with my old 13" macbook and used it hard for almost 5 years without a hitch so if this has the same build quality then I can do nothing else but recommend it highly. Only rated with 4 stars because like beforementioned I still havn't had it for long.

My Macbook originally came with an 80GB Seagate Momentus hard drive which I wanted to upgrade and I wanted to stay in the same family of drives. This 500GB Seagate was the perfect fit and a great price too. It's only been up and running for 2 hours but so far so good!

I have Toshiba laptop that I got in 2006. It had only 80 GB HDD. In 2010, I decided to increase it.I got this Seagate HDD which was simple to place in and lo, my computer had a 500 GB space.I could use my previous one as an external Hard Drive once I get a case and a Sata to USB cableI loved the Seagate Hard Drive. It is 7200 rpm, which makes it faster than my previous 5400 rpm Fujitsu hard drive.I have been using it for a a week. It runs smooth, no issues.
