Question 1

Will this work in my older MacBook Pro?

Accepted Answer

It might be a tight squeeze, height-wise and you may have to remove some padding--so longs as is the same disc size first. You may want to open it up and check how much height you ultimately have.

Question 2

Does ST3000LM016 & ST4000LM016 use SMR or CMR?

Accepted Answer

PMR per their tech specs (sorry can't post a link).

Question 3

Can i use that for my PS4? Is it better in terms of everything else apart from the storage compared to Seagate ST1000LM014 1TB SATA 6.0Gb/s 2.5" Laptop SSHD Bare Drive

Accepted Answer

This hard drive is about 50% thicker than normal 2.5" HDDs. I don't think it will fit into a PS4. It doesn't fit in most laptops and it didn't fit in my media server without a lot of customization.

Question 4

Will this work with a Playstation 4?

Accepted Answer

No it is too thick.    Has to be less than 9.5mm
