Customer reviews

Easily installed
After installing new HD to replace original 40G HD - installed using Seagate Disk Wizard the image file of original drive - system booted up and recognized 80G HD. Very smooth operation!
Note - my original HD was almost full - hence need for new one - but part of problem was the automatic IBM backups that was using a lot of HD space - once deleted the backups - more room on new HD.

Very satisfied with this hard drive
Installed this hard drive, formatted it and installed the operating system without any difficulty. No BIOS error messages.
Functions as well as my previous 60 GB 7200 rpm drive.
I'm delighted.

Can only be installed by pros
As a pc enthusiast, but not a professional, I thought I wouldn't have a problem installing this drive. However the drivers are available only on a floppy disk (something that many of us no longer have drives to read), thus this item, however good, is really only intended for professionals who are qualified to configure PC's from the ground-up. Just a word to the wise.
