Neat replacement HDD
I brought this as a replacement HDD for my PS3. Delivery was prompt and it has worked perfectly since installing. I can now install all my GT5 tracks and lots of music and videos. Its brilliant. Doesn't appear noisy (or at least no noiser than the old one) Very happy.

Pray it never fails......
Ok got this drive last year and it failed last month, I understand that drives failed so wouldn't down rate it for that but I would for Western Digitals RMA service which was comically bad.WD does have a site where you put in your drive number and they will issue you with RMA number. Not a bad idea but here is my first small gripe, you have to pay to return the drive yourself, so basically I have to pay because of their shoddy goods. Not a great start. Ok sent the drive by recorded d...

Replacing PS3 drive
Well I am writing this whilst doing the install. I have just put the 500 gig drive into my sons PS3 to replace the 40 gig that was in there from new. I did the formatting and went to System settings and it says it is 465 gigs of which 413 are available. I did expect to have all 500gigs available but this is not even showing 500. I dont know why this should be but for a brand new 500 gig drive I would have expected to have more than 413???

WD make the best hard drives in my opinion!
What can I say, its an excellent hard drive. I think it's well worth spending a little bit extra to get Western Digital for the build quality.

Excellent
I bought this product as my PS3 had run out of space and I am impressed with it so far.The hard drive came first thing this morning with no damage to the box or the HDD, the HDD was secured correctly and couldn't move around at all.With this being my first purchase from Amazon I'm glad I decided to join this service.Thank you Western Digital & Amazon

Works perfectly in my mid-2009 Macbook Pro 13"
I've been upgrading my MacBook Pro recently as it's getting on a bit (bought in Nov 2009). Had been a bit nervous about fiddling around with the hardware in it but upgraded the RAM recently and that was easy, so decided to have a go a the hard drive too. Again, really easy. This hard drive works absolutely perfectly, my MBP was already faster from the RAM upgrade but unexpectedly the hard drive upgrade made it run faster still. Applications like iPhoto now just pop up almost instantly and retrie...
