Pros: I have this same hard drive in my laptop and its been in there for 6 years no problems my advice to greatgm is not to avoid toshiba hard drives but to avoid acer they are the bottom feeders of the laptop industry mean while toshiba is at the top making quality products i would advise everyone to run out and buy toshiba its money well spent Cons: as for what caused greatgm's hard drive to crash it could be a number of things such as a virus, overheating, a flaw with his acer there are many things that could have caused this so to say it was toshiba making a bad product is crazy find out what caused it then put the blame where it belongs and fyi every hard drive has flaws on it the hard drive rewrites around them so if he had the restore disk or even waited on the warranty he wouldnt be out any money its his stupidity he went out and bought another one but with the restore disk there was a chance he could restore it and the problem would be solved note this doesnt work everytime either but it can workRead full review
I had no errors on the drive, but when I got it I was worried because it was packed in bubble wrap instead of an anti-static bag...I waited to write this review until I had put Windows 7 on it and upgraded to Windows 10 with all the updates (including another build of Windows 10.) Put all the software and games on it a kid could want (it was for a teenage girl.) Cleaned up all the junk left over from all the updates and totally defragmented it and didn't have one disk error and the machine was quick enough that I believe the drive was healthy after-all. I had even tweeked a setting in the BIOS to throw the thing into performance mode and it was working like a charm!!!
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I bought laptop hard drives to replace defective ones in laptops that I have. The devices is worked well. I loaded the operating system and the laptops were like brand new. I would buy these hard drives again for similar use.
Great Product for the money. My hard drive took a dump after almost 4 years of use. It was very easy to install and got my laptop back up and running.
Drive was easy to install and works great. Boot up is far faster than with the mechanical hard drive. I would strongly recommend it.
