Bought this SSD to replace HD in laptop. It was large enough for an easy clone and has sped up processing on the laptop. I liked it so much I bought a 2nd one for the other laptop. Sale price helped me buy the 2nd one.

This product is a new revision of its 4TB predecessor. It operates faster and has fewer oddities. Some speed was gained with a Giga ethernet port connected to a Giga port on the router. I use it for storage and access of photos by laptops and do not use any other features so I have turned the extra features off in the manager module. I would probably give this box a 5 star rating but since I have only used it for a single purpose, I can not comment on its other features including the USB port.

What's great about it: It has a lot of storage
What's not so great: Needed UEFI R2.0 motherboard to get full use
HD was the easy part. In a Windows MBR environment, it can only address 2.2TB of the 3.0 TB. Users must have a motherboard with UEFI R2.0 capabilities. If the 3.0 TB HD is to be the system (C:) drive, then it is a total re-install with Win 7/8 so it can install the UEFI R2.0 boot manager. If the desktop had already been UEFI R2.0 compliant and the WD hard drive is only a data disk, then plug it in like any other time. There is now oodles of space for photos and image editing software now so purchase of a WD 3.0 TB and subsequent UEFI MoBo was necessary. I would recommend this drive to anyone however they must be aware of its requirements to make full use of it.

What's great about it: Great air flow and cooling
What's not so great: Sits up high but not a real issue for me
Being concave in design, it allows great air flow underneath the laptop and runs quiet as well. Using HD temperature measuring software, it has reduced the HD heat by 5 degrees Celsius or higher depending on load placed on laptop (like Photoshop CC). A staff at the Best Buy where I purchased it got it for his gamer friend so he had first hand knowledge of how well it worked. Thanks Best buy.

This SSD can fit at a Sony Vaio Ultrabook 2 and 1 ? Model SVF14N15CBB .

It looks like the model 2 comes with the 1st drive as a 5400 rpm HD so it would suggest it is a 2.5" format and the 2nd HD is probably a an M.2 PCIe-type SSD.
Open up the unit and see if there is a "standard" 2.5" HD in it and this SSD will work in it. My laptop had a 2.5" 5400 rpm HD which I replaced with this SSD.
For the next trick, you will need to buy a USB-sata cable and download the free version of drive clone software to replace the current HD.

Will this drive work with Lenovo T470 Laptop

Looked at specs for the T470 and it apparently has a 256gb SSD PCIe-type (M.2 style SSD I guess) so the "standard" 2.5" type SSD like this one will not fit in the T470.
Personally, it is not something I would try.

There is only one drive in the box and the network i/f is probably Seagate proprietary so it is unlikely there can be any mods.

can this replace a dying fan?

so i think the fan in my laptop is on the way out. is this a workable solution to the problem? i don't have the money to buy a new one and don't feel comfortable shipping it off some place to have it fixed, if possible
My experience would suggest you look for a pad that is concave under neath the laptop to allow more air flow and possibly assist with a failing fan.
