    I just needed a HDD replacement as the original failed in my laptop. I had an 80 GB which was more than enough and this 320GB HDD for the price was a great deal. It has a 2 year warranty and because Windows XP support will end in April 2014, the hard drive "lifetime" will outlive Win XP.

    Despite the recommendation to use this for laptops, I used it to upgrade the storage on my PS3. It was just the perfect size for the mounting cradle and I had no issues with the software. Using this, I more than doubled the size of the game console's storage.

    My laptop hard disks started having problems. The laptop was 5 plus years old. I bought two of the 320GB drives to replace the 250GB drives that were starting to fail. I backup to a server each night and was able to restore everything in a couple of hours.

    If you are experiencing problems with your laptop performance I'd definitely have a hdd diagnostic ran or if your computer is older than 3 years. This drive is a perfect replacement to preserve your computer's data for a few more years without having to pay for data recovery services.

    Always WD - NEVER Seagate

    When it comes to trusting your data on a hard drive, never trust Maxtor, toshiba, Seagate, or Hitachi. If you cannot used a solid state drive (SSD is the best way to go unless you have hoards of data) Go with a WD drive.
