    DON'T EXPECT THIS TO BE A SEAGATE MFD'D OEM DRIVE. IT'S NOT. SEAGATE VERIFIED! REVIEW ONLY FOR DRIVE SOLD BY "FINITY INDIA"... (AS AN UPDATE TO THE BELOW REVIEW, THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EXCELLENT. THEY TOOK THE DRIVE BACK AND GAVE ME A FULL REFUND WITHOUT A PROBLEM.) The Drive is either faulty out of the box or not compatible with OEM installations, as indicated. Either way it didn't work. I installed the drive and OS. worked for a bit, then BSOD. Assumed I'd made the error or had other hardware problems. Used various products to scan and check every piece of hardware in my machine and they all passed. So, I started over, being extremely careful to follow ALL Dell and Seagate installation instructions to the letter. Same result, BSOD. Tried this with slight modifications six times. All six; BSOD. I downloaded Seatools Drive software and the scan stated, "This is not a Seagate OEM HDD and is therefore NOT warranted by Seagate". Since it is being sold as if a Seagate product, imagine my surprise!I gave up and bought a Samsung EVO 850 SSD and Voila! installed without a glitch and is running perfectly. Whatever these drives are from "FINITY INDIA", They are not Seagate OEM products and MAY not work! 2My Big Fast Seagate Wedding My HP tx1000z had a 7200RPM drive to begin with, so I had no worries about decreasing battery life or heat, as some of you may have. That being said, having the larger cache and high density of a larger drive should make for some battery life improvement in my case. This drive is a tiny bit noisier than the old drive, but it is certainly not loud. I had no issues with firmware - it's the desktop Seagates one must avoid, it seems. I considered getting a larger drive, but they all utilize a third platter and might not fit. It seems the larger drives come at quite a premium as well, for smaller caches and some had reduced speeds.The combination of upgrading from Vista to Win7, moving from AVG to MS Security Essentials, and moving away from a nearly full drive to a spacious one has taken my boot time from "Are we there yet?" to "That's about how long my phone takes to get going." I do have Bitlocker enabled, but my phone has full disk encryption as well. So in booting, the phone is kinda slow for a smartphone, and the laptop is pretty fast now.I did notice some disk thrashing the first few times I was working with the new drive. It went away, and I figure Windows was just happy to have some space to Prefetch and whatnot. After restoring from an image, I also transferred a bunch of files I had been keeping on an external HDD, so there was plenty to index as well.It's a bit early to comment on the reliability of the drive, but it's been a few months and my experience has always been that if I don't kill a HDD within a week, it will go for years.The packaging was relatively frustration-free, for what it's worth. I don't remember yelling obscenities and attacking it with a knife, like the last CD I purchased... 4First day of use - GREAT It's much faster than the stock HD that came with my macbook. System loads 10 seconds faster and applications that took close to 8 seconds load in about 4 or 5. Everything just seems smoother and i don't regret the purchase. It took me a while to choose this specific drive since people complain about its failure rate and I was downright afraid of going through the trouble of a return, so I'll update this if I run across any problems. I'll be putting this new drive under stress since my macbook is in a desktop replacement position. It's On mostly 15 hours daily. If I'm not personally using it, then it's compressing or converting movies. Let's hope mine is not a lemon.Pros:Price is cheap for 500GB.Fast and silent.Cons:I can feel it running under my left hand. It doesn't vibrate like many have mentioned and doesn't make any noise, but I can certainly feel it rotating unlike the 5400 rpm stock HD i had before. 5Great Hard Drive I purchased two of these 500GB 7200 RPM Hard drives to upgrade my laptop. It had only one 320GB 5200 RPM hard drive and a blank bay. I did have to order a door and mounting bracket for the blank bay, but this was not an issue with Amazon. They arrived to me very quick, in fact in under 24 hours. The packaging was great and both work superbly and are very quiet. I saw a couple reviews that said they were loud, however I found they are both quieter than the single one 320GB that was running that came stock in my laptop. The laptop was just under a year old and the hard drive in it was fine but I needed more space for storage and the extra speed increase was a definite plus for me. Now I am dual-booting Vista and Linux Mint with no need to partition and have more storage space that I will ever use. 5Terrible, used, old, and rusty drive sold as new, not from Seagate! This has NOTHING to do with Seagate and should in no way reflect on their products or quality control! I can not review this drive as the product purchased was supposed to be NEW! Showed up with oxidized aluminum and rust showing on some of the screws. It had already been partitioned and was full of some strangers information, it had not even been wiped! Luckily for said stranger I am not a malicious sort, or I could have possibly played all kinds of havoc on them! 1New drive works as expected The drive I ordered from seller rockingdealsco appears to be new. It arrived in a sealed anti-static bag and adequately packaged for safe shipping. I ran several successful diagnostic tests before restoring a system image created a few days before the original (same model) hard disk failed. My laptop is again usable. This was an inexpensive way to fix an otherwise good seven year old laptop. 5Reliable, marked increase in performance I replaced the original factory-installed Hitachi 5400rpm 320GB hard drive that came with my Macbook Pro (15" Unibody, Late 2008) with this one.XBench results and experience show a marked increase in drive performance:OLD (5400rpm/320GB/Hitachi) Drive Results:Disk Test 40.17 Sequential 79.08 Uncached Write 80.92 49.69 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 80.87 45.76 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 66.60 19.49 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 92.19 46.33 MB/sec [256K blocks] Random 26.92 Uncached Write 9.37 0.99 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 62.27 19.94 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 62.84 0.45 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 101.33 18.80 MB/sec [256K blocks]NEW (7200rpm/500GB/Seagate) - THIS DRIVE - Results:Disk Test 53.01 Sequential 97.92 Uncached Write 132.78 81.52 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 109.16 61.76 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 53.06 15.53 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 188.20 94.59 MB/sec [256K blocks] Random 36.34 Uncached Write 11.92 1.26 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Write 155.08 49.65 MB/sec [256K blocks] Uncached Read 78.44 0.56 MB/sec [4K blocks] Uncached Read 143.62 26.65 MB/sec [256K blocks]With the hdapm utility installed and set to max performance, freeze-ups related to drive spinup and spindown from Snow Leopard's new power management utilities are literally non-existent. The drive is louder than the factory installed drive, but this is expected since there's an RPM increase, however, it's barely noticeable with the fans running.The drive seems to be reliable so far. 4Replacement Drive on Alienware m17 R1 - fit fine and works well I used this to replace a fried drive in an Alienware m17 R1 that I repaired for a friend. As near as I could tell, this is the same drive the manufacturer used, but perhaps a year or two different vintage. It worked fine. Note, the original drive lasted about 4-5 years with no issues. While I am not certain, I strongly suspect that the root cause of the original drive failure was heat damage from an seriously overheating laptop, not from a quality issue with the original identical drive. I will never know for sure, but this drive fit, works well and while not as large as some new drives, or as sexy as a solid state drive, the price was right for a budget repair job. 5My Last Seagate Momentus Drive Lasted 6 Years Before Dying - Just Installed Exact Same Version (So Far, So Good) This is the exact make / model / size of drive that was (and again is) installed in my 2009 MacBook Pro laptop.I noticed around year 5, the drive started to hang more and I had use disk utilities to repair it a couple times. Last week, it started acting up, so I ran a full Time Machine backup then attempted to run disk utilities from a boot USB drive, but this time I was unable to repair the hard drive and for the first time got multiple SMART errors. I knew the drive was on its last leg at that point, so I ordered this one and got less than a week more out of the old drive before it became unusable. Thankfully, I was still able to access the files using the USB boot to start my computer and grabbed the last little bit off the drive via click-n-drag to an external drive.So, bottom line ... I got a little more than 6 years use out of the old drive. Hoping I get at least that long again from this new one, as there's still many things I like to do on this old Mac which is functioning perfectly for my purposes.Today, I've successfully installed the new drive and re-installed everything from Time Machine. I really wanted to change drive types and get a larger drive, but unfortunately, I have a strange MacBook that was part of a 3-month window of production that doesn't allow for it to upgrade larger than 500GB of SATA type ... or 250GB SSD. I'm very happy I was able to get this drive for $65. It was the most simple solution under the circumstances, as well as the most cost effective. 4After 3 weeks it still works fine. I've only had it in my laptop for 3 weeks, and so far so good. To its credit, I first installed it on my kids' MacBook, because it is much easier to install on those than my MacBook Pro, so I could be sure it worked before I went through the trouble of taking my laptop apart. So, it got a system installed on it twice with a zeroing erasure between. It seems to perform fine, and I'm glad to have the extra space. As a side note, I went to the local Mac store to see what they were selling, and they had the same drive for twice as much. It's a shame that they mark it up so much, I might have bought it there. This was a worthwhile experience for me, and for anyone who isn't afraid of taking apart a laptop. So long as your warrantee has lapsed and you don't carry some Mac Care like plan, this is a very economical way to get more memory.As for comparing this brand to others, I can't say. I would have gone with WD, but I had an external drive by them that crapped out, but that's a very different product, and often you can get unlucky with these things. I don't think I put my drives through much of a workout, so I'm not the best judge. 5
