4.0 out of 5 stars great drive but a bit hot, March 8, 2009

I definitely found a difference in my laptop's performance by replacing the 160gb/5400rpm with this drive. However, the laptop's fan now works non-stop to keep it cool as the temperature rose by a couple of degrees. Other than this issue, it's a great drive overall.

I replaced the drives in a Dell D620 and an older Sony Vaio with this model. Both computers were faster but noticeably hotter. The Sony's fan would run on high speed almost constantly. The Dell's fan would turn on during sustained data transfers. Reasonably priced for the capacity and speed.

Hi All.

I have a Lenovo - (IBM) Thinkpad W500 and wanted to get another drive so that I could load Windows 7 Beta on it to test...without having to destroy my good ole Vista x64 Image.

This drive caught my interest...1 because I didnt really need anything larger, and 2 because its NOT a Seagate. I have heard the disasters surrounding Seagate as of late and thus WD gets high marks for Quality in my book.

The drive setup perfect, works quietly, although sometimes makes a rather loud noise when shutting the laptop down and the heads are disengaging. I dont see it as a problem...its just the way it is.

This is a great drive as are most other WD drives. The speed is awesome on a laptop and the noise is low.

PS. I have seen a 320gb drive for around the same price on Amazon..it is a WD @7200rpm....so do your shopping.
