This worked great on my Toshiba Satellite C988-S5068. No problems with the install, the true definition of plug - n - play.

Yes, it will work, but you will need an external adapter to migrate the data from your old drive to your new drive. Best Buy sells the Apricorn data transfer cable which will get the job done and it includes the needed software. After you transfer the data, replace the internal drive with the new drive and you should be in business.

I would recommend:

Apricorn - Data Transfer Cable - Gray
