Customers are delighted by the Blue 500GB Internal SATA Hard Drive's performance, ease of use, and price. Many appreciate its ample storage capacity and straightforward installation process. While some found the size to be a minor drawback, the positive feedback on performance and value outweighs this concern. The drive's quiet operation is also frequently praised.

    I have had my computer serviced about once a year. When I needed a new hard drive I was confident the Geek Squad Tech would advise me which one would be best. I was not disappointed.

    There're fewer and fewer reasons to buy a mechanical harddrive instead of an SSD drive. Cost was my primary reason but it was going in an old system and I also had some compatibility concerns. All I can say is ... It works

    My hard drive went out on my laptop so I went down to my local BB, I got the same size hard drive that my laptop had, and at a price I could afford.

    These hard drives will work alright but I would recommend saving up your money for a SSD since you would get better performance but if you are on a budget this will work.

    Great price for data back up drive - had it 8 months and have not had any read or write issues with it. Most recommendations suggest using WD "black" series for use in computers but for storage of date, files, etc, this series works just fine.

    Curser doesn't work properly on Dell or HP laptop. Spoke to geek squad several times, only temporary fix. Reinstalled curser software; still don't work. I have to restart the computer to get the curser to work properly.

    I'm sure it's a good drive because I use the desktop models, however it was missing a crucial specification on the box so I couldn't use it. It's 9mm thick which was too much for me.

    Product worked as advertised at a good price but the aggravation of going to the store to buy made it a negative experience.
