Storage Capacity

Highlights
Quality
New hard drive was easy to install and has worked fine since installation.
Works great and is a great back up device.
Still too chicken to r&r the hard drive in a (badly) working laptop, even though said laptop gets backed up every night.
Corrupted sectors that grew in number with each disk test)!
Price
It was just what i was looking for works great great price
This was a very inexpensive way to keep my computer alive.
Vendors that still have them in stock are selling them for $350!
Quoted between $100 and $300 to just diagnose the problem and asus wanted me to send it to them.
Shipping
Great honest vendor that lived up to the 24 hour 'next day' delivery promise.
Quick delivery with amazon prime saved me when the old hard drisk stopped working.
I ordered this hard drive and it arrived the next day.
It was delivered 'next day' well packed and in original sealed factory box.
Packaging/appearance
I've also been watching smart status on my hp replacement, it's not pretty.
Competitiveness
I contacted bb and a couple of other repair companies because you can't open the case.
) dell only offers replacement hds with lesser tech specs than the toshiba (1tb 5400 rpm sata).
Dell no longer offers the oem toshiba hd.
