So Far, So Good !!!!

Pros: Very Quiet compared to my OEM drive. Formatted to 152627, which should be 149GB....just right.
Cons: Any hard drive is never big enough....sigh. No other negatives at this time. Not expecting any.
Overall Review: Just bought this drive on Monday 5-11, and received on WED 5-13. Newegg RULES when it comes to shipping and prices, which were the best on the net. Replacing the original 60GB HD in a Toshiba Satellite A75 (2004 vintage) which crashed. Why not have a little more space, eh ? This is my 3rd order from Newegg, and I'll keep on being a customer.
Not Bad.....But

Pros: Bought the 1973 version (adds built-in DVD player) for my parents. Picked up all the Comcast digital channels in our area without a problem. The 1440 x 900 resolution is nice...while not quite true 1080p, it's a step in the right direction.
Cons: Remote controller is really picky...must be pointed directly at the green dot power-on indicator.
Overall Review: Consider spending a little more money on a better-known brand if possible. But for what it is, the Coby 1923/1973 is not that bad a deal.
Must-Have Addition

Pros: Makes my Toshiba Satellite A75-S209 really run. Doesn't swap out to the HDD as often, and everything loads quicker.
Cons: None seen after two months. Although I would have liked to have had a 2GB or bigger module. However this laptop has a 1.5GB limitation.
Overall Review: I will be adding a USB TV tuner soon, and this added memory should help things run so much smoother.

Maxell - It's STILL Worth It !!!

Pros: Maxell makes a great product bar none. I've used Maxell brand since the UD-XLII cassettes came out in the early 80's. These discs work well in LiteOn drives. These exact discs work well in older standalone players of the first generation.
Cons: Only a few coasters, but those were probably due to a computer or software malfunction.
Overall Review: For the price, this deal beats all I've seen locally. The free shipping makes the deal even sweeter.
