Replace your SSD

I replaced my 128Gb SSD with this 1Tb HDD and don?t regret it for a minute. SSD is so overpriced. This drive is still super fast. There?s not much noticeable difference in speed IMO.

Being smarter than the job.

Some instructions would have been nice. Not being a computer tech, it took a little research to install it and make it work. Once I figured everything out it works as it should.

Works great

I bought this for my ps4. I've had it for about a month now it appears to be working great I'm not a tech guru so i cant give a lot of details on performance that's why I gave it a 4 star rating. I know its better then the one that came with the ps4 and my system hasn't crashed randomly yet.

Will be 5 stars for you if you follow the advice in the text

Before you buy, be sure that this 2.5"drive fits and can be secured in the HDD assembly (bay of your Dell computer. I needed to buy an aftermarket bracket to keep the drive secured to the assembly. Now it works perfectly and now I don't worry about moving the orientation of the computer from horizontal to vertical.

Fantastic Replacement

Seagate Guardian BarraCuda ST1000LM048 - Hard drive - 1 TB - internal - 2.5-inch - SATA 6Gb/s - 5400 rpm - buffer: 12... Select a rating below ????? This drive has been a fantastic replacement for my original hard drive. It is working flawlessly. My laptop was recently out of warranty when the original drive failed. Since everything else was working fine, replacing the hard drive made economic sense. Dell service in finding and purchasing the replacement was outstanding.

Delivery took long but the HDD was well packed when delivered. Was gonna order the 5TB but I read somewhere else that for a laptop, 2TB is the max. Installed it to my Acer Predator Helios 300 2019. Easy to install. There is a lot of Youtube Videos for tutorials on how to install an HDD to a laptop, and it saves you money.
