New hard drive works great. Only thing you need to know (which I found out after the fact) is that you need to format the hard drive before installing. In order to do this, you need to purchase a USB to SATA adapter cable for about $20. Then you hook to another computer and format. Takes about 10 sec. But the cable is around $20. From there, install new hard drive, and then boot system. I used recovery DVD for my Acer Extensa 5420. It took about 45 min to complete installation of Windows XP. All works great now, no issues whatsoever.

Bought this to replace the 160GB drive in my daughter's MacBook 13" Mid 2008 model. Used Time Machine to back up the old drive, slotted this in, booted from the Original disks, then used Time Machine to do a restore. Perfect! Used a Western Digital "My Book" 1TB external hard drive to do the back up and will use it with Time Machine to keep the machine backed up going forward. Great value for money and easy to do yourself.

Purchased 500GB Western Digital Blue HD because I had purchased one a year ago for my PS3 and find this is still a great drive. I purchased this HD to replace the HD in a T60 Thinkpad (100GB) I just bought. I did consider the 640GB size but the price was much greater per GB than this 500GB drive. This HD is very quite, has low heat output and is a very good value. I like and recommend the WD Blue line of hard drives.

I've been using this for over 2 yrs now and it is still going strong with no issues. If I didn't want an SSD, I would probably buy this again.

This is a great hard drive. I replaced a Toshiba hard drive in a netbook with this. It is much faster and offers more space. So far it has had no problems as of yet. I only purchase WD hard drive and have not been let down yet

Hi all... as some of the other reviewers have also done, I bought this SATA drive specifically to upgrade my 80GB PS3. And I have to say that although many people have said it is an "overkill" to go larger than 250 or even 320, after installing it a few weeks ago and putting everything from personal pics to ripped mp3s, I now have the ultimate 1-stop shop for almost all of my multimedia needs.Having a pretty decent TV and home theater set-up, I transferred my ENTIRE library of music to my PS3 and can now play it through the system, view all of my personal pics and videos, and get just as many downloaded videos or demos from the Playstation store as I want without worrying about running out of space.For the price (just over $100 at the time of purchase) you can't get a better upgrade deal anywhere. I'm sure the price will go down when technology gets better and bigger drives are released. But for now, this is a steal.The install/swap was VERY easy... needed only a couple basic tools and some table space. It took about 10 or 15 minutes to do the swap, but the whole back-up and restore took me about 30-45 minutes each. It was all worth the wait though.After formatting and restoring my other system data, it showed I had around 400 GB to work with. I have since moved over about 100GB of media files and have plenty of room for all of the future add-ons, demos, videos, whatever else I may want to transfer from my computer and an endless number of Guitar Hero and Rock Band track packs and tunes! :)What did I do with my 80GB drive that used to be in my PS3? I went to an electronics store and bought an aluminum USB casing for the HD (about $14) and now use it as an extra backup! Works like a charm... it's small, compact and I'll take that with me when I travel rather than my 2GB USB flash drive.People who want to upgrade may want to look around on the web for video tutorials to help with the upgrade process. That's what I did and it helped a lot.I would like to also add, for those of you who might not be sure or haven't tried it yet, mp3 or wma audio files will work on the PS3 and most avi movies work too. I don't have the complete list handy of compatible files that work but as I mentioned before, this is now my ultimate media player, right in my living room. There's only a couple visualizers on the system by default, but it's great if you have people over and want to play some music. Rather than going through the trouble to hook up an iPod to your system, you can just play the music from the PS3 or create playlists. It's so simple and convenient and a great alternative to using multiple devices in your system.I hope this review helps. I installed it about 3 weeks ago and have had no issues and all has worked smoothly. I highly recommend this for all PS3 users out there. For those of you that want to upgrade your PS3 hard drive, even if you think 500 is too much, trust me when I say - It's worth every byte! :)

I purchased this product due to capacity of my PS3 being maxed out in only one year. The hard drive came in great condition and was extremely easy to install (just you tube for videos). The first day the hard drive seemed to have a serious delay that made it harder to play games but after it finished upgrading it has worked perfectly fine ever since.

I have a 80GB Fat PS3 and the H.D.D. was filled pretty quick. I searched forums to obtain information on what is an affordable yet reliable replacement, and many PS3 owners point to the Scorpio Blue as the solution. They were right. It's remarkably cheap, easily installed, and has more than enough space to hold my game data. I'm pretty satisfied with the end results.

I bought this drive to put into my 13" White Macbook (The first version released in 2006)It fits perfect and worked fine. One thing to be aware of is that may have to to do a disk utility of the drive if your Macbook doesn't recognize the drive after you install. So, just go to the Disk Utility on the OS install disk and do an ERASE of the drive with the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) chosen. I guess the factory sets these up to go into PC based laptops. Anyways, it will appear after you do this step.The drive is quiet and fast! Couldn't ask for more! It's great to have 500GB in my Macbook!!!

I slapped this bad boy in there to replace the over-capacity 80GB stock HDD I had and its great. Space is no longer an issue obviously for the forseeable future and it operates quieter. Much, much quieter.

I am def. NOT a technological person. But I managed, with a little help from my local radio shack, so install this hard drive. I wish It would have come with instructions explaining that the piece on the hard drive and the piece on the computer that it hooks in to can be flipped to accommodate the hard drive. But it works well. My computer is up and running again, so no complaints, yet!

I got this drive as an upgrade for my macbook aluminum unibody (late 2008), the upgrade was easy with time machine. The problem is this drive is always spining, (like the normal drive when you are opening a big file) 100% of the time, this makes the battery drain faster, and makes the quiet macbook noisy.I switched back to my old drive and use it as an external drive.

I knew nothing about replacement hard drives so when I was told to get one for my aging macbook, I looked at reviews and saw this one. It was shipped promptly and had it installed in no time. Apple store was going to charge easily double for what this product does.Am happy so far with what I've got. :-)

WD HDD is the best for me, they are reliable units and last for years, I have been installing these units for a while now and do not have any problems yet. The problem that I had it is not with WD HDD but with Amazon; I order this HDD on December 4th, today is December 9th and still do not get it. I found a better unit in Newegg.com (NBHD 320G|WD 7K 16M WD3200BEKT) at better price; I ordered on December 5th and I got it the next day. I already installed and finished repairing a laptop as yesterday, another happy customer for me but not for Amazon.

My old hard drive was broken. I needed to find a new one. I had looked for a new in amazon.com and found this. At first I got relectant to buy on-line because an electronic hardward was quite complicated, when I bought and installed it, I thought it's good for me to decide to buy on-line. All the descriptions were matched with what I was looking for. Cheap and good, I would say.

PLUSES: It's large, quiet, fast. It easily and perfectly fits where a 20-40-60-80 GB, 2.5" SATA drive would, including in a PS3.MINUSES: You may be able to find larger drives but not everyone may need more.Of course, it's no longer 'the biggest' but I knew that a couple of months ago, when I upgraded my PS3. I also figured that, since I have no plans of storing a movie library, 320 GB would carry me for the next couple of years. After that, it's likely that I'd be buying the next generation game/multimedia machine.Advice to the PS3 upgraders from someone who, after some hesitation, actually did it:- Go for the highest capacity. If it's a 2.5" SATA and you can afford it you should probably go with it. I already replaced my original PS3 drive with a 320GB but my formerly 60GB laptop has a 500GB 2.5" WD SATA now.- If you need to format this drive or any drive to Fat32, the best utility I found was FAT32FORMAT.EXE - Google and you shall find it out there. I'm not reviewing the formatter utility but I can tell you that it does a drive in less than 10 seconds AND it works on Vista.- It helps to have a 60-80 USB-connected drive handy to backup your PS3 content before upgrading. With one of these as the backup device, the PS3 fully restore EVERYTHING, including whatever copywrited or protected objects, such as, in my case the PS2 memory cards emulations._______________________________________Note (March 12, 2009)The Western Digital Scorpio Blue 500 GB Bulk/OEM Hard Drive 2.5 Inch, 8 MB Cache, 5400 RPM SATA II WD5000BEVT seems to be the way to go these days. I like WD and the 500GB is selling now for less than I paid for the 320GB. I actually helped a couple of friends upgrade with this drive and it was quick and easy.Note 2: (April 8, 2009)The review above was for the 320GB, which I used to upgrade my PS3. I just ordered the 500GB because life became almost unbearable with a 60GB on my laptop. I am planning to swap the drives without actually reinstalling the OS and the apps with help from Acronis True Image Home 2009 PC Backup & Recovery.Note 3: (April 12, 2009) - Laptop UpgradeMy 2 year old Thinkpad T60 came with a wimpy 60GB SATA drive. I needed the ability to upgrade to the much larger 500GB and do it without having to reinstall the OS, apply the service packs and then reinstall and configure 100 different little apps.Acronis True Image Home 2009 PC Backup & Recovery allowed me to do all of the above in about one hour. Its Utilities section has a 'clone' option that would copy EVERYTHING, including the Master Boot Record/Sector (MBR) from the puny 60GB drive unto the 500GB while allowing me to control the size of the active partition - this while the 500GB was connected through a USB wire and the laptop booted off the program's CD.Once the operation completed (50 minutes) I simply removed the old 60GB drive off my laptop and replaced it with the 500GB drive. Once the laptop was turned back on it booted up happily, with a 200GB master partition and a 300GB second partition. There are 3 words that I have to use to describe the process: PERFECTION and COMPLETE SATISFACTION. This capability alone is worth the price of this product.To my surprise, with the new drive, the Primary Hard Disk score as computed by Microsoft (right click on 'My computer' then select 'Properties') jumped from a decent 4.8 to an unexpected 5.7.

I was looking to upgrade my hard drive, on my ps3, for awhile...did a lot searching on the internet. All the reviews I read were good so I went for it. The only problem I ran into was getting the drive formatted (fat32). Maybe I'm not that pc savoy but I decided to checkout Best Buy's Geek Squad. They charged me 50 bucks and took care of everything. If you want to or need to get a hard drive, this is the one.

Shopped for HD upgrade and found this drive to be best bang for the buck.Overjoyed to discover it was also the most popular upgrade for my Dell Inspiron 1525.The only way things could have been better would have been a better experience transfering my system to the new drive.I must mention the freeware program that ultimately worked. PartSave.Exe from Partition-Saving.com Considering everthing, it was a good learning experience for an old dog and a GREAT one for the purchase experience.
