HGST Travelstar 2.5-Inch 1TB 5400RPM SATA 6Gbps 8MB Cache Internal Hard Drive (0J22413) (HTS541010A9E680)

Works really well. Good for the price. No problem at all with it.

excellent little 1GB hard drive - and I got it at a good price - $78. Replaced an older 320GB drive for triple the storage. I am still running windows xp (very stable) and I wasn't able to get my operating system migrated to a partition on this drive (was still on XP SP2 - but have now updated to SP3) - not sure what was going on when i tried to clone my system drive to this new drive (laptop has 2 drive bays) - so I just decided to use it for file/document storage.I formatted it using windows xp disc manager and created 3 - 320GB drive partitions from this 1GB drive - and it is holding all my photos and video fine so far with no issues. Seems to run quiet and plenty fast for file access. It is listed as an advanced format drive - but I formatted it as a 'basic' drive for my 32 bit windows xp - and it is running well with no issues so far after a month.

I just bought this item and I will update this review upon recieving it. Cant wait to use it for my ps3 and then my future ps4. Im planning to utilize it for ps plus since there are many games for it which my current ps3 slim's 160GB HDD cant hold. When I get the ps4 in a couple of months or so I will be replacing its stock HGST 500GB (yep same brand as this HDD) with this 1TB and installing the 500GB on my ps3. Its deff gonna be worth the hassle with this investment. Cant do better than that and cant wait for this to get here!Update 12/11/13:Just got this HDD delivered and I set it up and installed it in my ps3 in no time! runs excellent and couldn't be happier. It's perfect for the ps3 and ps4. The only thing is like all hard drives this size it needs to partition at least 100GB so the initial space I could actually use was around 830-850GB I forgot exactly. Still it's a lot more then my stock 160GB hdd. Highly recommended for ps3 and ps4! Packaging was also up to par.

Yeah... PS+ will take fill up your HD in short order. Buy a little more time with this. Outside of the time required to backup and restore your existing HD (You'll need an external drive bigger than your current HD to do so), the transplant is like a 10 minute job, IF your Superslim already has an HD. If it does not, you'll need to procure the appropriate bracket first.Nice unassuming HD. Does the job.

Installed it on my Playstation 3 according to Sony instructions on the internet. It was easy. Works fine. Before you turn on the PS3 to reformat the New HD, you will NEED to go to Sony and DOWNLOAD THE PS3 operating to USB Memory. Many websites have instructions on how to upgrade the HD. Some say that the having the PS3 Operating System on a USB 2.0 memory stick is optional. It is not optional, IT IS MANDATORY.After I put in the PS3 Operating System Install on the USB 2.0 Memory, inserted the memory stick and the Hard Drive with the data restore into the PS3 USB ports. Everything went fine. It into the PS3 Internal Hard Drive bay. Now I have a 1000 gb (1tb) Playstsion 3.Every once in a while the PS3 will Hang or Lock-Up. But eventually that will correct itself. Just hold down the power button and restart the system. Then let the PS3 fix the problems. Like I said, it will eventually work the problems out for itself.

I ordered two of these, one for my upcoming vacation to store pictures and another as a backup disk for my laptop. I paired them with this enclosure ([USB 3.0 & Tool-free ] Inateck USB 3.0 HDD SATA External Hard Drive Disk Enclosure Case for 9.5mm 7mm 2.5 Inch SATA HDD and SSD(FE2004)) so I wouldn’t need a screwdriver and they would be somewhat protected from vibrations. It fit very snugly and I didn’t hear any noises when I shook it around (while it was off of course). I added even more protection for travel with these: AmazonBasics External Hard Drive Case.The speeds are great and the screenshot I took are the speeds I get from using it on my desktop with USB 3.0 for 50MB. So far they have worked well and I have not seen any problems from them. I, however, do not keep them running 24/7/365. For non-intensive tasks, ie. not in a NAS or server, I would recommend these drives.

After buying a PS4 and learning of the mandatory game installs to the HDD, I knew that I had to upgrade the standard 500 GB HDD. Purchased this at a price of $71.99. A TB of space is easily worth that. It's only been a day, but it seems to operate very smoothly. It was packed very tightly in the box shipped to me. This was great because several reviews have complained about DOA HDDs caused by too much movement in the box due to poor packing materials. It arrived a day later than the "expected" delivery date, but I can't complain too much. All in all, it seems like a solid product at a good price.

Great drive from Western Digital. I have the same drive in my HP Notebook. This one was installed in a case with USB connection to the Notebook. In Win8.1 you will need to go into Disk Management and do the setup procedure, otherwise it may not show up in My Computer. There are plenty of instructions online, it's not that hard. I'm no computer guru, took me about 15min.
