    I saw another post stating they received a 5400RPM drive instead of the posted 7200RPM. I decided to do a test on mine, and sure enough I received a 5400RPM drive as well. Just be sure to test the drive upon opening it.

    Great hard drive at a great price! I'm replacing a much smaller desktop hard drive that is out of storage space. This one should have plenty of space for years to come.
