          Comments about Western Digital Scorpio Blue 500GB SATA 3.0 (3 Gb/s) 5400 RPM 2.5" Laptop Internal Hard Drive:

          The hard drive went out on my computer, and after a friend of mine that works in i.t. took a look at my machine, he diagnosed the problem. I purchased this new hard drive, and after he told me what to do, I was able to install it without assistance. Though it takes a long time for Windows to load, as well as all the other system discs, it was not too complicated of a process at all. I do not like the fact that my former hard drive failed with no warning signs, but I hope this one will serve me better.
