PS3 Internal Hdd SwapJune 1, 2010 Edward M. Quinn III(MANASSAS, VA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Was easy to install. Definitely needed more room for the ps3 because 60 gigs were no longer cutting it. The GBs are more than enough for what I needed from this inter Hdd. Definitely a reliable product, have not had any game save or game installation issues at all. Very happy I went this route when upgrading internal hdd.

bought this for a PS3 HDD upgrade. works great instlation was a little harder than expected but still not bad. If you need a bigger HDD for your PS3 then this is a great one.

Upgraded my Dell Inspiron LaptopMay 25, 2010 Anne(Northern VA) I had a 160 GB hard drive which wasn't near enough storage for my laptop. I looked on the Dell support website and they suggested this hard drive as an upgrade. Of course, I prefered to buy it on Amazon.
I've been using this drive for two months and it is quiet and has worked flawlessy. What a huge difference it has made in the speed of my 3 year old computer. My other drive was almost full and didn't leave much computing room. I feel like I have a brand new computer.
Here's how I installed it:
1. Buy a drive enclosure. You need this so you can plug the new drive into your USB so that you can clone your current drive onto the new drive. I bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001AAVA08/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title
2. I bought Acronis True Home Image 2010. You might be able to download the free version off the Western Digital website but for some reason, I couldn't get it to work. In the "Tools & Utilites" section, select "Clone." That will copy the contents of your current drive exactly onto your new drive - hence the "clone" name.
3. Install the new drive into your laptop and you're done. Very easy. You can even put your old drive into the enclosure and use it as extra storage.
