My first laptop restoration project
Thank you!!!
I bought an Asus laptop with no hard drive from a Salvation Army auction.
Now it's running like a champion with Windows 11
My order arrived quickly and installation was a breeze.
Thanks again!

Bad quality.
I don't think this is a quality product (WD blue SA 510 M.2 2280 1TB). I expect a hard drive to last more than 2 years with extensive use. I used it 2 days ago and yesterday it died, windows says it is "not initialized". Not even linux can access it.

Excellent
Works great no problems like most. They probably don't know what they are doing.

Easy to install - worked great when it was working
Worked great initially on my Mac mini M2 using a Saitechi hub and after a short time I kept receiving a notice that it wasn't ejecting properly and wouldn't show up on my computer. I got in touch with Saitechi and they said they had been having issues with thisSA510 SATA. Any help would be appreciated.

Faulty?!?!
Finally got it in after two days of trying to make it work. I had someone try to install it, they turned it upside down, and for some reason it worked perfectly.
