SAMSUNG Spinpoint M Series MP0603H 60GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 2.5" Notebook Hard Drive Bare Drive

Comments: Bought this drive to install in my Sony PCG-R505GL and replace the existing 30GB 4200RPM drive. Not only is this drive quieter, but it's a LOT faster! All I did was image the existing hard drive, put the image on this drive, then change the partition sizes to allocate space for the extra 30GB!

Pros: Received 1 of 2

Cons: Ordered and paid for 2 Backordered indefinitely! My mistake, I should have just asked for a full return when I was informed it was backordered.

Overall Review: I'm no novice, I know the purchase mechanism is always more convenient than the return mechanisms. Therefore I can only rate the experience as average. Perhaps I'm being impatient, but no word in 4 days. Still working through the return process, time will tell!

Pros: Was really good working hard drive for a PC.

Cons: none.

Pros: Great drive. Replaced wife's dead 30GB drive in her Gateway 450ROG. Had no issues with this replacement. Seems to be snappier and quieter, as well.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Harder to find non-SATA drives for notebooks these days.

Pros: Very Quite Fast and easy to install This is a awesome drive i would buy this drive again!

Cons: Wish my laptop would support a HD larger than 60GB! other than that NONE this drive is sweet

Overall Review: Newegg.com shipping and customer service is 10+ these guys ROCK

Pros: I have bought 8 of these drives from 40GB up to 100GB and all have been a excellent solution for the job requirements needed. I am a A+ IT consultant that uses the drives for laptop drive replacement and ex storage solutions.

Cons: none

Overall Review: You can't go wrong with this drive!

Pros: Worke great in my Sony laptop. All the other drives I used in it died in less than a year. This one is still going strong!

Cons: Laptop makes a grinding noise when starting up. I'm hoping its not a hard drive issue.

Overall Review: Didn't notice any speed increase from my 4200rpm drive, but didn't do any benchmarks. Don't really use my laptop without it being plugged in, so can't speak on this drive being power hungry or not.

Pros: Works in my IBM R40. It was a breeze to setup and works great. OH, Also the price was great too! Thanks Neweeg for fast shipping!!!!

Cons: None so far
