Top Quality Product For a Great Price
Top performance hard drive around for a 500Gig. It is the right capacity to run Windows 10 and still have room for temporary storage when working on projects or able to load many .mp3/jpeg files for using computer as a DJ machine. Can also be partitioned for smaller virtual drives if necessary to ease up less clutter between programs and data files. Highly recommend for a starter Windows 10 system. Superior for storing many .mp3 files alone for endless hours of music, especially on a DJ job. Read more

Easy Install
This 500GB hard drive replaced the original 320GB drive. I've successfully replaced batteries and hard drives in other computer equipment. As a refresher, I followed a YouTube instruction video to complete the process on the Mac desktop. The 500 GB hard drive was received on time and in perfect condition. Read more
Great price
These drives were 1/3 the cost of buying them from Dell. The only complaint was that the sleds that were supposed to be part of the order didn't show up. I didn't ding them because it turns out I needed 14th generation sleds not the 13th that they were supposed to come with Read more
