Another perfect drive, the second I’ve bought from this seller. Highly recommend!

I bought this as an upgrade for my PS3 HDD (Hard Disc Drive), after I had filled the 320GB HDD that came with it. I was taking a gamble by going for a 1TB HDD, as I had no real idea if the PS3 would handle such a large HDD or if it would affect performance. After doing a fair bit of research and reading on the web, I settled on this HDD, for a number of reasons: 1) It was the correct dimensions - PS3 HDD have to be 9.5mm high, some 2.5inch HDD are taller than 9.5mm and won't fit in the PS3. 2) Running speed of 5400rpm - PS3 is compatible with HDD's that run at 5400rpm, I've read online that some people have put in HDD's that run at 7200rpm, but I chose to stay safe and avoid the risk of overheating my PS3. 3) The HDD has only two platters - the fewer the platters in the HDD, the quicker the HDD read speed. It also has a decent size buffer, more than what the PS3 needs on the HDD. 4) 1TB size for a reasonable price. Installation of the new HDD was relatively straight foward - one tip I would give is to do your research and read up on how to change the HDD before attempting to change the HDD in your PS3 - because its not about just removing one HDD and sticking the new one in, you also need to install the PS3 system software. Sony's PlayStation website has all the information in its help and support pages. Imagine my relief when the old 320GB HDD I took out of my PS3 was also a Toshiba..!! It's only been in my PS3 for a little over a month now, which is why I'm only giving it 4 stars, because I do not yet know about how well it will perform over time. However, up to now I've had no issues with it, it's no more louder than the previous HDD and seems to read data quickly, and I've already filled half of its total free space!! Please be aware that when you buy a HDD, you do not get the full amount of space available after installation I had 828GB / 931GB, but that is still more than enough HDD space to be lasting me for the foreseeable future, or until I eventually decide to go to PS4.

Bought this to replace my dead ps4 Pro harddrive. Blue light of death, safemode restart did nothing so Followed youtube tutorial how to replace hardive which was the last option. Easy to install. My Ps4 is now alive and working perfectly fine.my only regret was not buying a more powerful hard drive like a more expensive sold state drive. Reason being I wasn't sure if it was my original hardive was the issue so bought the cheaper hardrive as a test..anyway. this hardrvie works fine as a replacement ps4 hardive. Good quality for the price.

I bought this, in July 2026, to replace a failed HDD in a FreeSat PVR. This was a straight swap and simple to do. In fact, the HDD in the PVR was the same make and model as the one supplied. However, I was annoyed to see that the HDD supplied was made in 2019, so it is 7 years old. The failed HDD in the FreeSat PVR was made in 2022, so was 3 years younger. This might not be an issue if the drive has been stored correctly for all 7 years but I have no idea if that is the case and therefore do not expect this unit to last. An example of very old new stock, sadly, which this seller has not advertised at all. UPDATE 19 July 2026 - given others have had the same experience, I now believe that this is a reconditioned (ie, not new) item, and that the seller is not advertising this.

Works a treat as a replacement on my freesat. Upped it from 500g to 1Tb. You tube tells you how to do it too.

I bought 4-5 of them. For storage, I used to have them as internal drives, but on old laptops, 4-8 GB RAM, 10-15 old. After 80% of usage, it would slow down CPU with heavy programs. Never crashed.

PERFECT!!!!!

Used this for my 15 inch old laptop..
