Works as expected - no surprises

The drive works as expected - there were no surprises on installation other than the BIOS on the circa 2002 Dell Inspiron 4150 laptop doesn't seem to see the full capacity. No problems though - Win XP sees it all. This is a 5400rpm drive so it's not going to be as zippy as a 7200rpm, but given the age of the laptop and the possible current draw and heat generation from a 7200rpm drive I decided to be conservative with a 5400rpm drive - still the increased areal density and cache compared to the old drive makes this drive a little snappier than the old drive. What is really important though is how reliable it is - if it's still going in 3-5 years I would be happy to give it a 5 star rating. Read more

Excellent PATA Laptop Drive

I have been using this drive for about 4 months now, and it appears to be operating flawlessly. I used the Apricorn EZ-UP-UNIVERSAL EZ Upgrade Universal Notebook Hard Drive Upgrade Kit to upgrade the original Seagate PATA 80G drive in my old Compaq Presario V2000 Laptop to the 160GB Seagate ST9160821A since I was running low on space on the original drive. The Amazon seller Sulla Tech shipped the drive very fast, and the packing was very good. Recommended. Read more

Good but noisy

The first drive was significantly noisy. A replacement is better but you can still (barely) hear it, as if there is sand in the bearings. Compared to the all the drives for the laptops that I have, this drive noisier. Some people have rated it as whisper quiet. No such luck here. Otherwise the drive has been fine. It is faster than the stock 4200 RPM drive. I have had it only for about three months. Read more

Bought 3 for 3 Dell D600's

I bought these to replace the 30GB IDE drives in 3 Dell D600's. I ghosted the drives and was up an running. These drives are quiet, and Using ADIA32 they are running at 108 Degrees F. I would recommend them to anyone with a laptop. Read more

Hard drive shmard drives.

Very good product, packaging was not wasteful, installation was easy, software was intuitive and easy to use. I have an older laptop that does not support this size of hard drive but, Disk Wizard (software included) installed a Dynamic Drive Overlay (DDO) and made everything a breeze. Read more
