WD 500 GB 2.5-Inch Laptop Mainstream WDBMYH5000ANC-NRSN

So i currently have a MBP (MacBook Pro) mid-2012 that i wanted an ssd + more storage. Considering how expensive a 1TB SSD is i can't get another one at the moment, (yes i do have one in my HP..love it.). So what i configured is the Sata 1TB to be my home file directory while the OS X is on the SSD. I previously had a 7mm model of this that i was quite unhappy with. (In which why this only got 4 stars.) But this one has not acted in any shape or way..as of yet like it's smaller counter part in which makes me quite pleased. Im quite surprised of how fast it was during the initial configuration i had to do to it, as well as booting the OS X the first time on it doing a not shabby job. But mainly being used for storage. Thank you WD for having a much better priced alternative then a 1TB SSD

This was an upgrade from an older 300GB HD. I cloned my existing HD and then installed this in it’s place. It required that I increase the new HD partition to its max from the original clone size. This was simple and quick using Windows 10 tools. If you don’t know how to do it just YouTube it.

These are very good drives by any standard, and unbelievable bargains compared to just a few years ago. If your requirements are anything less than top of the line, or if your budget has limits, Western Digital "Blue" drives are the ones to get. I'm sure you'll be happy with this one.

So far so good.

Item was as expected. Delivery was a bit of a problem.

Liked the plug and play capability with the older laptop replacement. A bit speedier as well.

great product, will buy more

It works wonders (for the most part) but a bit slow on read/write times on my laptop. :( idk if its my pc or the drive.

Crap, just failed on me after just a couple of months.

Works perfectly.
