Good backup drive [Posted on 2008-07-31]
It is a nice drive to have as a backup drive, a little bit slow, but it works for backing up my main laptop drive.
good replacement HDD for Apple Macbook [Posted on 2008-07-31]
I bought this to upgrade my Macbook's HDD from 80GB to 250GB. The replacement process was quite easy and this drive works fine (so far - I've had it for about a month). it seems like a good value for the amount of storage you get, it's working fine and seems quite fast, and so overall I'm happy with it.

Cheap insurance for your MacBook [Posted on 2008-08-30]
It had to happen - on a trip, and the trouble-prone standard Seagate drive in my black Macbook just...died after 2 years of moderate use. Tried to revive it to no avail, so sought a replacement. Searched carefully (didn't want to lose another HD) and found a great price on the well-reviewed Scorpio 250 drive. Installed it a month ago, reloaded software, and I'm up and running again. Some specific notes:
-- The Scorpio seems peppier than the 80MB Seagate it replaced - not by much, but enough so I notice.
-- Installation is easy, but take note: the Macbook's drive bay is lined with rubber guide strips loosely glued to either side of the bay. When I removed my old drive, I must have loosened one of the strips, so when I tried to install the Scorpio, it inexplicably would not slide all the way in. Neede a flashlight to see that one of the rubber guides had fallen onto the bottom of the drive bay and blocked the drive's access to the contacts. Some patience and a small screwdriver and flashlight were necessary to unfold the piece of rubber and re-stick it to the side of the drive bay. So take care when removing the Macbook drive so as to not detach those rubber guide rails!
-- I took the precaution of ordering another Scorpio to preemptively replace the drive in my second MacBook.
So far so good with the Scorpio - I recommend it highly.
