    The capacity is too small for many home use applications, and won't do for music and movies, but is great, cheap alternative for business laptops and computers, or point of sales terminals. Western Digital drives have a history of reliability in my experience and in the short time I have had two of these in terminals, they have been more reliable then the drives they replaced. If you have any doubt on if it will have enough room, get a bigger drive. This one won't store much.

    I bought this WD 320 HD to replace my HD in my PS3, which had gone bad. This HD is very easy to install, just have to remove the blue screw on the bottom of my PS3, pop out the HD, remove four tiny screws from the mounting bracket, and install the new HD. Replace the screws, and done in a matter of minutes! It ran like a champ, just had to format it. If you're not sure how to do this, just look on youtube for videos on replacing the HD on PS3. It's very easy to do!
