Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:Drive is a bit louder than my 5400rpm drive both in general and reading/writing, but the performance gains hardly make this a con.
Pros:Amazing performance increases and boot up timesRuns faster than my previous 5400 Drive (which is usually standard in low-mid grade laptops)Good amount of storage Comment:
I thought I wouldn't see the boot up time increases with my Laptop since it's just a i5 2410m (but maybe the 1333mhz ram helps a bit..) but I've been getting more or less the same. My windows boots up 50% faster, from over a minute, down to almost 30 seconds! |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:Wish you could get 1TB or larger sizes
Pros:Fit perfectly in my 2011 Macbook ProScreaming fast speedFormatted with no issuesdrive is dead silentno vibration at 7200 RPM Comment:
Amazing harddrive. After reading some reviews of people not liking this drive I took the plunge and man am I glad I did. My bootup time on my Macbook Pro went from 1:06 down to 19 seconds. My computer is way more responsive. It actually runs like a Macbook Pro should, like a Pro computer. The drive installed perfectly and runs dead silent. Honestly I could not be happier, this drive screams!! Seriously the best upgrade I could have done for the money. If you are looking for a new drive, buy this! You wont regret it. |

Cons:None so far
Pros:Faster boot up, easy to install, overall performance upgrade, low price. Comment:
I have only had this drive briefly, but so far so good. Got it to replace a hard drive which failed in my laptop. I've noticed a huge increase in speed, not only in boot up speed but also in overall performance. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:*2-year warranty (could be longer, although many are going to 1-year so maybe this is a pro)
Pros:*Good capacity for 2.5" drive*SSD area boots windows a lot faster*Don't waste money getting the full packaging Comment:
Boots windows 7 almost exactly 50% faster in my test - time before login screen appears, desktop appears, and system is 'usable' all cut in half +/- 10 seconds compared to my stock 7200 RPM drive. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:Runs a little warmer than a 5400 RPM drive (of course)
Pros:WICKED fast! Comment:
Great drive. Picked it up for a 15" 2012 Mac Book Pro, and there's a serious improvement in boot time and application load up. I'm really glad I picked this up. Highly recommended for those people who want a super fast drive, without having to sacrifice space for speed |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:none at this time
Pros:works great - fastsmall form factor fits all easy to installprice compared to SSDlarge storage compared to SSD Comment:
Only had this drive installed for few days but it was recognized right away and even on an older system (Core 2 quad) is substantially faster then the old 7200 HDD i had for boot/shutdown times . It feels quicker for applications/folders and when you take into consideration it should* get faster the more it learns your habits and i am only using it with sata2 connections i am satisfied so far . |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:None
Pros:750GBQuick bootsGreat performanceGreat price Comment:
This purchase has definitely extended the life of my laptop. My laptop used to feel sluggish especially during boot ups. Now it is very fast and even interacting with the system itself feels so much better now.It is amazing for the selling price since you get near SSD speeds for the HDD storage space. Highly recommended. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:There arn't any ...it doesnt suffer from the weaknesses of a true solid state drive or traditional drives.
Pros:This is by far the best drive I have ever owned. Fast small and awsome. Comment:
My system is already booting up in a fraction of the time. I dont have to worry as much about wearing out of moving parts or maximum number of writes since the solid state and spindle drives ease the wear on each other by sharing the work. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:- none
Pros:- cheap price- best of both worlds Comment:
Used this for my PS3 Slim. It is a tiny bit faster thanks to the SSD part. Even though the HD is 0.2mm over the spec according to the PS3 manual, it fits fine. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:None so far
Pros:Speeds up program loads. Can be used in both desktop and laptop. Comment:
I have been wanting to get one of these for a long time. When it came on sale and they added a $20 coupon I couldn't resist. Installation and cloning of operating system off my old hard disk went without a hitch and the drive has been running great ever since. I had tried using OCZ Synapse cache drive but I had compatibility issues with my EVGA 750i MB. I have the synapse drive on another computer and it failed. Really screwed things up. I understand this won't happen on the Momentus XT. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:not as fast as ssd only
Pros:silentfast Comment:
I have been using this as my primary drive for about 2 months. I also have an OCZ vertex3 120g ssd as a secondary drive (for games/software) and a 2tb WD green drive for storage. I went to this configuration after about 2 years running 60gb g.skill ssd as primary with a 500g WD black secondary drive and the 2tb WD green drive for storage. I prefer my current configuration. This drive is not as fast as the g.skill was as a primary drive, but even though you do notice a small decrease in performance, the whole system still feels very responsive. Having to manage a 60gb primary drive and constantly having to move stuff around was not worth it.Lastly, i don't hear this drive at all. It's probably not dead silent like the ssd but i don't hear above the fans of my computer and those aren't loud either. |

Cons:-3 years warranty vs 5 years (before 2012)
Pros:-Good balance between speed & storage space Comment:
Installed on my laptop to replace the old WD Blue hard drive, I definitely feels it boots faster to windows (24 sec. vs 12 sec.)Don't hesitate to buy it if it goes on sale again because you won't regret it.Overall very good drive. |

Seagate Momentus XT 750GB 2.5" SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Cons:- Not as fast as SSD drives- Heats up my notebook a bit more
Pros:- Boot up times multiple times faster, but still have enough storage at fraction of the cost Comment:
If you need your storage but want to boost up the boot time and loading time, this is for you.I put this in my Macbook late-2009 unibody and works like a charm! Boot time is much faster.I recommend getting a cooler since it can get a bit hotter.Great product! |
My Sony Vaio VGN-FW285D hdd bit the dust and laptop sat for awhile, been reading reviews about this great product and when its on sale $109.99 couldn't say no. Vaio is not happily snapping between programs and boot times are really fast
