1 out of 5 eggsProduct in Box IS Different

Pros: Product you get in the box is a Z7K500 HTS725050A7E630 which is actually a better faster drive.

Cons: If you are installing this drive in a laptop without a cage, it will be loose inside the laptop as the height is 7mm as compared to the standard 9.5mm which is what the H2IK5001672SP (0S02858) is listed for.

Other Thoughts: Thanks for wasting my time.

5 out of 5 eggsWorks in DV9930US

Pros: Easy install in an old HP DV9930US. Only problem was caused by Intel controller drivers after cloning. Fresh install of OS fixed this.

Comes with 3 year warranty, and since WD now owns Hitachi I know there will be no warranty claim issues.

HDTune 2.55 reported an average transfer rate of 94MBs and access time of 17.5ms.

In the DV9930US the drive has peaked at ~42c, but with the cooler I have installed it stays at ~37c. I have not heard much noise out of it, but time will tell.

Cons: Not as fast I would like, but it did go into an old system with SATA-2. Still faster than the original.

Other Thoughts: Like the quality of the drive, will buy more of the SATA-3 versions.

1 out of 5 eggsGood while it lasted

Pros: I had this drive for a little over 3 years and it worked flawless for those three years

Cons: Right after the warranty expired the hard drive failed. The warranty department refused to help out in anyway.

Other Thoughts: I will think twice before buying another hard drive from this manufacturer

5 out of 5 eggsPerfect Replacement Drive

Pros: Replaced the stock drive for Macbook pro 13" 2009. Fast and silky smooth and as quiet as the original one. Tried a new "black" also day before I received this drive, it was very noisy under the palm rest. 7K500 scores 9/10 in noise and the other 0/10 ! I guess this is probably one of the main reasons it's got acquired.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Kudos to Newegg logistic management, the recent change of courier improves the delivery service to top notch... Do not change it back! There wasn't any reason to take a week to ship product from So. Cal to SJ area before. As I recently learned, domestic shipping TAT in China usually a day or two across provinces.

3 out of 5 eggsCaution - Advanced Format Drive

Pros: Appears to work well, in laptop. Running XP, SP 3.

Cons: Tried to copy OS from old drive to this drive with Drive Image 7 (I know, old, but never fails). DI could not see the new drive or its partitions. Put drive in external connection system, Original OS could not see drive or partitions. Called HGST, was advised that this drive has Advanced Format Drive system and will not work with some older image programs. 3 days wasted trying everything I know to make the drive do what I wanted. Now, I have to invest in a new image program to be able to copy the old OS to the new drive.

Other Thoughts: I'm sure once I get the OS copied on to this drive that I will be happy. Having 500gb vs 120 in the old drive will be a big plus. Lots of frustration, though, until I got on the phone with HGST. Sometimes, really new is a setback. I know, I could just install a new OS and all programs, but I really don't want to spend that time, then have to tweak everything.

3 out of 5 eggsIts works!

Pros: Very snappy drive. No problems. Good price.

Cons: seams alittle louder than other drives Ive had.

Other Thoughts: when I shutdown the PC, It takes a second to wind down and you can hear it. Unlike any drive I have had before. Hope this doesn't become a problem later.

1 out of 5 eggs

Pros: None.

Cons: Received Sata III 6.0GB instead of Sata II 3.0GB as ordered. Because of different form factor size, would not fit in my older dell laptop

Other Thoughts: Second time this has happen. Thought it was a Newegg mix up, but since this has happen twice, I now believe this is a HGST Manufacture packaging fault. I will buy from a different Manufacture in the future.

5 out of 5 eggsGood price

Pros: Got it on promotion price of $50. 7200rpm.

Cons: none so far

Other Thoughts: Was looking for a new HD to replace and old one, found this for cheap. "Ghosted" an older somewhat failing laptop drive to this one. There was no problem while doing this. Put this new one back in and is working fine. Speeds are better than old 5400rpm. Never heard of this brand before but so far so good.
