    My pc was limping along on the original hard drive and was not doing its job anymore. I had my computer tech install this hard drive and we are up and going again, with no problems!

    My son's laptop hard drive crashed and we needed a replacement quick. This one was the right size, inexpensive, available and easy to install. He was back up and running in an hour.

    Bought this for an older Mac computer that 'froze up'. It now works like a brand new iMac for a tiny fraction of the cost of a new one! Easy to install.

    My old hard drive went out and I got this at best buy and had the Geek squad install it. So far no problems it runs quiet and seems like it doesn't get has hot as the one the was installed. Only 500GB But I don't need a TB. So nice buy for the money.

    This was a replacement for a drive that burned out and it operates flawlessly in my laptop now. It gave my two year old laptop a new life and I'm happy with its performance

    Bought this for my 12GB PS3. Installed easy; plug and play. Could have doubled to a terabit for 10 more bucks, but i'm cheap and I heard that a full terabit in a PS3 can cause some issues.

    First time doing this ourselves...it was thicker than the original, but the Geek Squad helped us know what to do...just took off some spacers and it fit just fine.

    As usual Geek Squad was terrific. They got this job done quickly. I did get a bug in the computer shortly after but Geek Squad took care of that. The drive is working very well and I am please. It saved me buying a new computer at far greater cost.

    The Hard Drive (HD) in our Sony Vaio was totally corrupted. The Best Buy recommended replacement was excellent and exceeded the performance of the original unit.

    Using the hard drive as the internal hard drive in PS3, simple, easy and now have doubled the internal hard drive space. Simple to plug in and use, couldn't have been easier. Thank you Sony for making it so easy to use any laptop hard drive. This Western Digital Hard Drive was a perfect combination of value, storage and quality.
