## Description

Review: Excellent hard drive for a modest price - I've tended to stay away from WD drives in the past, in favour of Samsung and Seagate, purely for brand loyalty reasons. However, having seen some reliability stats from "big data" businesses, which put WD comfortably ahead of [some of] the competition, I've switched allegiances. Not that it *really* matters for the kind of workload I'll be putting this drive under. I looked at eBay first and encountered a number of sellers peddling "factory refurbished" drives, so I turned to desertcart, hoping to avoid this as I want a brand new drive. The price I paid is what the drives on eBay were going for, so I was worried that I might still end up with one of the "factory refurbished" jobbies, but nothing about the drive or its packaging suggests that it is refurbished. It's fully sealed and looks brand new. So I'm happy (or in ignorant bliss) on that front. Note that some of the marketplace sellers here ARE selling refurbished drives -- so caveat emptor, if you care about this. The drive appears to run quietly and without giving off a lot of heat, but I'm most of all impressed with the read/write speed, which exceeds 100MB/s -- comfortably more than the old drive which is being replaced. One slight oddity is that the drive doesn't trigger the activity light on my laptop's ultrabay caddy, whereas my old drive did. I wouldn't want to speculate on the reason nor whether the drive or caddy itself is to blame, as I don't know how this particular feature is implemented. Still... not a big problem for me.
Review: Three Stars - Works ok but is quite a bit noisier than the five year old WD drive it replaced

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this compatible with PS3 super slim? (hope this question hasn't already been asked but i only saw info on first and 2nd gen. PS3's).**
A: You can reprogram a 2TB drive to think it's a 1.6TB drive, which is the largest as PS3 can take as an internal drive. I have done it myself using Seagate Tools, a program, you boot into from a flash drive.

**Q: if i install this in my ps3 (60 gb fat) will it still be able to play ps2 and ps1 games?**
A: Yes

**Q: Is it sealed and in original packaging? Thanks.**
A: Yea it was sealed, but not in original packaging, works great though, just had to format it

**Q: Would this work with a hp 15-p100dx**
A: It will work as long as your notebook does not require a slimline drive. I looked at the specs for the HP 15-p100dx and it does not say it is a slimline. If your notebook has a DVD drive (which I believe it does), then most likely the hard drive is standard notebook size. I would pull out the old drive first to see if it is slim or standard notebook size.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does the job
*by R***K on 7 October 2017*

Needed a low power small form factor HDD, and this fits the bill perfectly. Loses 1 star because of the cost
