I bought this hard as external, ie. regular external HDD with USB. Used exclusively for watching serials and movies on TV. In this vein, there are no complaints about hard. But judging by the reviews, it is not suitable for active work in the laptop. SMART attached. (Ignore the temperature, it's +30 now and he's been defragmenting with optimization for 10+ hours.)
