ps4 boots quicker, games seem to load a little quicker

Bought this drive to replace an aging WD in one of the company's laptops. Very quiet, No chewing sounds.

I replaced an old SATA drive 160GB of a laptop with this one and so far is working fine. Based on my couple of months experience with the drive, I would recommend it.

Installed very easily. I actually used an EZ Update kit to clone my ssytem over from a failing hard drive. It worked great and I love the faster rpms (had a 4200). It also didn't increase my laptop temp at all (@ 37C on a ZD7000 3.2GHz P4 desktop processor)

Price is good. Working well so far but it’s only a month now.. hopefully it works good for long time.

Extremely fast -- easily one of the fastest hard drives I've used made for laptops. Very silent for a 7200 RPM hard drive. Produces next to nothing of heat.
