  1. Sandy K.

    Pros: Runs a touch cooler than the WD160 and WD500 drive. Not very expensive. Cons: None so far, might be a touch slower than a WD 500GB drive but not by much. Overall Review: Works fine so far, hopefully it’ll be durable.

    Pros: It’s 500GB. I easily cloned my original to this without any problems. It’s quiet. For under $90 and free shipping Newegg is the best! I’ve been using it for 1 month without any problems so I hope it lasts. It comes with a warranty for 3yrs Cons: NONE. It would have been cool if it was 7200rpm. Overall Review: I got this Toshiba HD to replace the 250GB that came with my Gateway. I have a lot of music and I take a lot of pictures/videos with my panasonic 10MP Lumix FZ50 digital camera. I…

    Pros: Stable, quiet, and NOT slow, and fits into notebooks with 2 bays to make a nice machine; also, price, above average speed, and compatibility. Very Cool Cons: Not as fast as the Samsung, but close, no other cons Overall Review: Super Hard Drive for the Money. Above average to excellent performance for gig/dollar ratio. I have been using all 4 majors, Samsung is the leader in the 5400rpm…67 to 72 mb/sec in a notebook under use, not just benchmarked; whereas this Toshiba will do 55 to…

    Pros: Good drive. Nice and quiet with alot to store your files. Cons: So far so good…nothing to complain about. Overall Review: I bought this to replace my 120GB Toshiba HDD that is running out of room so quick. With all this extra storage, I really don’t worry about running out of room for my files anymore. This is aplenty and I’m pretty satisfied.

    Pros: I Installed this in my wifes HP Dv6000x notebook computer it works great went from a 80gb to 500gb. Installation took a mater of mins. Cons: None really, just had to take time reinstalling the OP system, and all her other programs, but that was expected.

    Pros: Easy install (no more than a 15 minutes – tops, but you do need the proper tools)! Works out of the box! As soon as I had the laptop back together I was loading the OS. Flawless install, and smooth update of all drivers (including the MB and chipset drivers). Cons: Too soon to know, but I do like the Toshiba laptops, so am expecting none. Overall Review: Shipping took only a day and a half – EXCELLENT job, NewEgg! The laptop was my son’s Gateway M-6866. Not my favorite, but it was easy…

  8. Alec P.

    Pros: Price (when on sale & no shipping cost) Speed Very Quiet Capacity Brand Reliability Cons: None Overall Review: So far a very good purchase & I’m really happy. This replaces a smaller 80 GB secondary HD in my HP dv9000 laptop & so greatly increases my overall storage to 620 GB’s from 200. My research seemed to indicate that it’s a pretty reliable brand for HD’s along with Hitatchi & I have had both before with no problems in years of use. I’d rather pay a bit more for a Toshiba or…
