update hardrive laptop

This is an excellent upgrade to OEM unit, even at 5400rpm, like others like it at 7200rpm but understand heat dissipation and large 1TB capacity offset. Speeds up startup over time and accessing multiple programs. There was mention of cloning problems so ensure that software works with OS version on present drive. Do not reformat the new Hybrid drive before cloning, nor run defrag. Drive works well and larger capacity will save money long term. Bought a second unit and installed it in desktop and works great for multiple monitor setup. Get unit while on sale. Note: if during clone setup or as a backup and experience a problem return to store for replacement under warranty. Troubleshooting often removes the base format condition from the factory, thus drive never the same over time.

case is highly flexible when it comes to placing in and then retrieving the hard drive. Even will take the bracket for the drive as well. SATA cable will fit, of to the side, with some effort or placed on top of drive. Wished the manufacturer put a card slot on outside to mark content of drive, but you can achieve same by using a label maker device for this effort.

Great value in having increased storage capacity on new hard drive. Minor drawback only 4500rpm(7200rpm desired) but it works fine. Also, can be used in desktop if desired. Runs cools and easy access to OS.

capacity with quality

Verified Purchase:Yes
Trusted brand name, plus good quality construction and capacity made for an ideal product to suit my needs. Granted the usb 3.0 series be faster but price has not come down nor is every unit have a usb 3.0 port(legacy) capacity to warrant purchase. Price was right for sure. Also, purchases the protection case for longevity and safety considerations. ps: now that the cloud is an acceptable storage but what happens if there is no internet available and item needed right now.

Compatibilty with older Toshiba
Would my older Toshiba P105-S6147 (currently has 120GB SATA HD) recognize the full capacity of a HD this size?
YES< YES. I have a P105-S9337 unit and the increased capacity is worth it. I did a clone of original drive and had no problems. Just make sure you have the Utility/Driver discs available if needed. Belarc Advisor is a good printout to have on hand for before and after reviewing. Plus, this is a Toshiba drive with 5400 rpm so no overheating will occur.
