Let's be honest, I could say that this is the best hard drive ever then you could get one and it could crash and burn right after you load all your precious data on it (luckily you kept a back-up right?). The truth is that, for me, this hard drive was exactly what the box said. I installed it into an early 2011 MacBook Pro without any problems. It has run happily ever since (albeit a bit on the noisy side at times). It hasn't crashed. The speed is exactly what I expected.
I have no complaints. Will it work for you? Maybe. Odds are that out of the millions of these things that are made yours will be just fine. There is a chance that you may get a lemon but that's going to happen with anything you buy. Back up your data and don't get too upset if you are the exception. The rest of us thank you for taking one for the team.
In summary: It's working and I don't have any complaints. I hope yours does too.
