    WD Blue 500GB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 16MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD5000AAKX

    • The C:\ drive is small (250GB max), fast, and cloned for off-the-shelf replacement.
    • The bottom line is it's a good 500GB SATA III hard drive for the price.
    • My Seagate 500 GB overheats and shuts down the system
    • Great price for a 500 GB 7200 rpm HDD.Works like a charm.
    • helped a friend out with this , he started out with only 150 Gb of HDD space, very poor when your someone who likes music and gaming...., now to get him a new tower and video card......
    • This Western Digital 500 GB Hard Drive installed easily and works perfectly in my Zmodo Surveillance System with 8 Weatherproof IR Cameras PKD-DK0865-NHD
    • Other than that, the specs of this are not bad, but the 500gb is a little lacking for memory for the end of 2015
    • I bought the Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB (WD5000AAKX( drive to replace a 320 GB drive that had frozen up in my desktop
    • I bought the 500 GB hard disk to replace the corrupted original disk in my Sony Vaio desktop from 2004
    • The 500GB hard drive works as I expected (no complaints).
    • Until now, I prefer to update my system adding more 500GB hard drives insted of those with more capacity like 1 or 2 Terabytes, just in case of a failure or faster search of files
    • Its a cheap, SUPER FAST, 500 gb (a lot o space
    • I have had no problems with this 500 GB hard drive.
    • We have a Windows XP PC with 250GB hard drive that was getting full with photos and videos
    • There does not seems to be an audible increase in noise seeing as two drive run now instead of just one and heat difference is also negligible and if this drive performs as good as my 320GB, this is another win from Western Digital.
    • I purchased this hard drive(500 GB) for the DVR for my surveillance camera and after set up, thinking that it was recording, NOTHING.
    • Perfect 500GB replacement
    • I used this hard drive to replace a 160GB hard drive
