Digital camera reviews of Western Digital 250 GB Scorpio Blue SATA 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Notebook Hard Drive WD2500BEVS
Digital camera Review: A lot of space for the laptop
Summary: 4 Stars
I replaced the original 100 GB hard drive of my Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop because I needed more space to store large scans of botanical specimens. I have had an external drive attached the the laptop but I'd liked to travel without carrying an additional external drive.
The installation of the Western Digital drive was very easy, using the standard documentation of the Dell laptop. The whole process took less than 3 minutes. Formating the drive takes quite a while, using NTFS for Windows XP I got a formated capacity of 232 GB out of the drive, not the 250 GB gross but still not bad. I was expecting an notable performance increase over the old Samsung 100 GB drive, but the difference was not that notable.
I'm using the drive now for about an month without having problems, it's quite but not as quiete as the Samsung hard drive. Overall a good choise but I'm looking forward to get 2.5'' drives with over 400 GB capacity, I'm still short with the 250 GB.
