Bought for the PS3Nov 19, 2009
I bought this item for my PS3 40gb when i purchased it back in 2008 and it was a great investment. It was a great value for the price I paid for the item. It was a breeze to upgrade the HDD, easy swap and format for the PS3. (It it noted that this was for the original (phat PS3)). I have recently upgraded to the PS3 Slim which contains a 120gb HDD. They release a 250GB recently, but I would advise to just upgrade the HDD yourself, it is cheaper and not that hard to upgrade.
 Good HDOct 28, 2009
This hard drive is great because of it's compatibility. It is used with a laptop, ps3, or an xbox 360. Western Digital is a reliable manufacturer. My last hd was western digital but it became corrupt so I decided to upgrade. It works fine, and Amazon shipped it fast.
 GarbageSep 17, 2009
I bought this to replace my old laptop hard drive in April. It died in September, so it couldn't even survive half a year. What a piece of work. I lost all of my notes and everything. My old 2003 internal hard drive that came with my Dell laptop still works, as well as my aging hard drive from about 5 years ago. And yet this thing, whatever you want to call it, couldn't last half a year. I will not be buying a WD product again. I suggest you do the same.

So far so GoodAug 19, 2009
My first one worked for about a month then crashed.
Kept getting hard drive access failures.
Amazon was very good at replacing it asap.
The new one works great.
Would get 5 stars if the first one worked.

WD 160GB Hard DriveAug 12, 2009
This hard drive was perfect for my situation. My Dell's hard drive decided to fail on me and I couldn't get it working again, so I bought this. Installation was easy, I was able to reinstall Windows in no time.
It was also a great deal; the 80GB hard drive from Dell, which I originally had, was around $100, so this was worth it; twice the space for half the price.
