Many appreciate the ample storage capacity for their files and the straightforward installation process.

    Huge upgrade for a laptop

    I got this to replace the rotational hard drive on my new laptop. It makes everything faster and should make the battery last longer as well. Note you'll need an external drive case, or a usb to sata cable to transfer over the contents of your old drive along with the software to do so. I believe Best Buy also sells that as a bundle for about 25$. I had an external case and used some free linux tools to do it.

    It fit perfectly into the ps4, runs fine, storage is as expected. Can’t play too many games with it but as long as you delete the game & it’s data you’ll be fine.

    I’m glad this was possible. In the past, we were always told we’d have to get a whole new laptop. Works great. And I realize that for these major transitions, not everything carries over perfectly. But the great Geek Squad staff is totally the best at putting my machine back on course. Thanks gents and gentle lady…!

    A good alternative for the Samsung drives. I have used both WD and Samsung, and I find there is a whole ton of difference between them. However, I don't ever see these drives at the original cost, which makes me wonder what the 'real' price is. Acronis can be used to clone for free and works really well.

    This drive seems to perform well. The software for cloning the drive was not good. I had to find another software "Easus To Do Backup" to clone the drive. It is working well so far.
