Review: Great storage drive for the money - My son came to me with his new Acer Nitro 5 laptop and said it was ridiculously slow... I work in IT and this statement made so sense since we over bought what he needed and it should last for years, this was 3 months after purchase. A quick look through the laptop found the internal NVMe drive had 0 available bytes, so we removed a game and opened up 120GB and ordered this drive for game storage as his laptop has a 2.5 SATA hard drive expansion slot, which we would just get a large HDD to use for game installs. Drive came in bulk packaging, vacuum sealed in an anti-static bag with those little black plastic molded "feet" on either end, in a single-wall box... No additional packaging or double boxing, but it arrived intact. I could see if your delivery carrier was a little "rougher" with packages, this might be a problem for this drive as it was packaged, but mine arrived with no issues. Installation was simple... Acer includes the SATA cable and mounting screws for the drive, which is good because this drive came with nothing extra, no screws or anything else. Installation took about 10 minutes total, most of the time getting the back cover off. After physically installing the drive and putting everything back together the PC booted right up and recognized the drive. This drive doesn't include any software (you don't really need it), so we went into Disk Management and formatted the drive as a single volume, and created a few directories on it to match the main drive so when an app or game was installed my son only had to change the C: to a D: in the installer and everything would work as expected. He has since installed a couple games without issue. The drive works well... It isn't the speediest thing, especially when you are used to an SSD, but for storage or applications that are not super disk intensive it works fine. Performance is good and there is no noticeably impact to battery life or increased heat dissipation. We have used Toshiba laptop drives in the past and they have been very good options in the past, so I expect no issues and good longevity.
Review: Great for second HD in a DVD replacement caddy - Toshiba L200 1TB Mobile 2.5 Inch SATA 5400rpm Internal Hard Drive I bought this drive to use as a second drive in my laptop through the use of a hard drive caddy that replaces my DVD drive since I rare to never need the DVD and is a very easy swap if I do need it. I purchased this drive around the early part of Dec and thus far has performed very well. The extra storage is nice to have and since the main drive is coming up on the 5 year mark I have moved much of what was on the main to this drive. I have externals as well but is much nicer to just have it on board and not using up a USB port and being just another thing to worry about. This drive is very quiet, transfers between drives are quite fast. Time will tell of course as my computer is on 24/7 except a once a week reboot or install reboot. I recommend this drive as a cheap storage drive or even a main drive replacement if the 5400 RPM is of no concern to you. (my main is 5400 as are most included in new laptops unless you pay extra) Any drive 500 gig or more I highly recommend partitioning. A search for partitioning software will give plenty of easy to use options. On my main I have a partition just for Windows and I store on the others. This way if windows ever needs to be reinstalled fresh you will not lose anything on the other partitions so long as reinstalling to same partition Windows was on in the first place.
