IT
Used in a 13 year old HP Multi media Lap Top. Fit was a little off due to physical case in one corner of new HDD. a little plastic shaving and it went right in. Star up and adding OS was easy and quick. I'm running in Windows 10. Computer speed has significantly improved. With a small graphics card, I will continue to use this computer as a media center/ TV / Web video Watcher and so far so good!
