I liked it's price. I know that many people are upgrading from 500Gb to 1Tb, so now is a good time for me to upgrade my 120Gb hard drive. The highest that I was willing to pay was $60 including shipping. This drive is pretty cheap on the disk cache with only 8 megs and thus wastes battery power. This doesn't bother me because my laptop is almost always plugged in. This is most likely the last magnetic laptop hard drive that I buy. The seagate 500Gb should hold my laptop storage needs until solid state 2.5" drives decrease in price more.
I use it as a backup for a SSD in my laptop. It works well so far.
