PERFECT! I try to buy this HDD in a local computer repair store and they want $60.00 for the drive and it was 150 GB instead of 250 GB like this one.

Good Hard Drive

Created: 10/03/11
Western Digitals are reliable, quick, quiet, and cool. They are also inexpensive, which is why many of the hundreds of drives I've bought for myself and for customers of mine have been WDs. This one in particular has one big strength - it can be used to upgrade an Xbox 360 hard drive cheaply and quickly. There are guides on the Internet, all that needs to be done is connecting it to a computer and using a DOS utility to flash it, and then inserting it into the enclosure. The BEVS drive series is one among a select few series that this can be done to.

PERFECT! I try to buy this HDD in a local computer repair store and they want $60.00 for the drive and it was 150 GB instead of 250 GB like this one.

What I didn't like from this buy was the HDD didn't come with a cover aluminum plate to hold the HDD with two screws. Luckily I did have the old broken HDD and use that aluminum cover.

Everything else was okay!

Your Standard Everyday Hard Drive

Created: 01/09/09
I found that this hard drive to be very "normal". All the functions and operation felt very standard. There was nothing in particular that shows up in our usage time. It seems the only feature that seemed "attractive" would be the 250GB storage space, out of that there nothing really special. It works very well though.

for a mere $30 I got a valuable piece of hardware that works flawlessly in the laptop! Western Digital is a name brand I've grown used to for a long time, maybe 25 years or so now.
