Easy to install - faster than a standard HDD

 

Very easy to install - just like any 3.5" HDD. The SSD cache does make this drive much snappier than standard drives - although not as fast as a pure SSD obviously.

You need this!

 

Bought this as an upgrade for my son's pc. It was running slow and lagging on games. This is a huge improvement! Great quality and value

Great Drives

 

Fast considering the rpm, getting write speeds around 100 mb/s on SATA II, hopefully be better once I fit my new board.

A great balance between speed and noise

 

This drive has a very nice balance of speed and noise. Being a 5900RPM drive it is not at all slow, in fact its much faster than 5400RPM drive.

Happy and Irritated

 

If you can get over the sound of the drive, this one is for you. I am not yet familiar with the drive's ability to handle games. I will get back to you once I figure it out.

Does what I needed it to do

Loudish noise every now and again. I'm guessing it's because the drive is reading and writing

Great Fast HDD

 

This HDD is amazing, great read/write speeds for a mechanical drive, getting around 160-170 MBps read and write speeds. I use this drive in my gaming PC and it holds shortcuts to my documents, pictures, videos, etc. from windows default folders, plus...

The "2 TB" is actually 1.8 TB of usable space, cuz of bits to bytes and whatnot. Not docking an egg, just stupid convention that we use

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Works great

 

Pretty inexpensive for a drive that you can put your faith in with as much space.

I use this as my gaming drive and have my games on it that I don't play very often. Has worked extremely well and I don't have long load times

I can tell that this is the bottle neck for loading games off of it, but that is to be expected
