About this product

Product Information

Harness the power of a high-speed hard drive without sacrificing battery life or storage capacity. The HGST Travelstar Z7K500 500GB 2.5-inch mm mobile hard drive offers best-in-class shock resistance and power management capabilities. The small form factor makes the HTS725050A7E630 perfect for any machine with a Serial ATA caddy. Since the SATA interface is cross-platform, you can use it in notebook, desktop, or even nettop computers.Despite its small size, it can allocate the entire 500GB capacity to a single partition. The Z7K500 hard disk functions just like a full-sized drive. Spinning at 7200 RPM, the HGST Z7K500 allows the user to access stored information quickly with minimal lag time. This helps to cut down on freezing while offering the same performance numbers of physically larger HDDs. This also makes it ideal for multitasking, since the high RPM rate gives users the ability to create a large swap file. The 7200 RPM platter spin speed is an actual measurement rather than an average speed. Since the rotational speed of the platters in the HTS725050A7E630 is constant, it also helps to cut down on write errors.The 7mm single-disk design makes the HTS725050A7E630 Travelstar compatible with slim devices. It can serve as a drop-in replacement for a Hitachi or Western Digital drive that matches the same design. It works with nearly all SATA-compatible laptops. Machines that feature multiple SATA connections can additionally mount the Z7K500 in a second bay. Travelstar drives are designed to work in tandem, and they also support master or slave connections to any SATA drive made by Hitachi or other manufacturers. If you need 1TB of total storage, then the Travelstar supports an additional mode to run two 500GB drives together.Even if you needed to use the 0J26005 as part of a RAID system, you wouldn't see a performance hit when looking at Gb/s numbers. A healthy 32MB cache translates into a speedy 6 Gb/s data transfer rate. These numbers are a protection against any type of SATA array slowing down. Since this HGST internal hard drive model uses the new advanced format sector allocation technology, it can even make more efficient use of older file systems. This sector format is fully compatible with NTFS and used by Windows 7 and Windows 10.As well as computers running a discrete operating system, this HGST hard drive can also function with gaming systems. It's even compatible with systems that can't access a full 500GB internal HDD. You could partition the HDD into multiple logical drives. Your game system could then view these as separate individual internal disks you installed. The manufacturer ensured that this disk is fully compatible with the FAT32 file system, which is what most console games require. Some newer versions of Windows can't format large partitions to FAT32, but this volume is tested to work with third-party utilities as well. This makes it compatible with a large number of consoles. If your console supports streaming TV shows and movies to disk, then this drive can also accept multimedia in this way.

    Hitachi / HGST TravelStar are the best laptop drives period.

    Hitachi / HGST TravelStar are the best laptop drives period. I have dozens of them going back 20+ years and they still work. If you get a Thailand made drive it was made in HGST's Global Storage Facility which they bought from IBM several years ago and this is a top quality facility. I'm expecting that the later china sourced ones are just as reliable. The bad thing is that Western Digital bought Hitachi a few years ago and eventually subsumed the HGST brand into WD's brand so no more newly made HGST drives. That's why I seek out the 2-6 year old unused Hitachi / HGST drives like these. Hopefully WD had not lowered the quality standards of the HGST drives, I did just buy a couple WD high capacity (2TB) laptop drives. We will see how those fare.

  • Easy to install

    plug and play, easy to install, started up quickly and works well. If I can do this replacement so can you, check out the vids on YouTube for tips and tricks and you can perhaps do what I did and rescue a perfectly fine laptop after the hard drive failed. Saved mucho $$.
