Review on WESTERN DIGITAL WD3200BPVT Scorpio Blue 320GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 2.5 Internal Notebook Hard Drive - Reliable Storage for Laptops by Abhey Gautam (Abhey ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm completely satisfied with the product, it works.

Native screw in Lenovo B575 laptop from 2022 to 2022 In 2022, during the diagnostics, a malfunction was discovered in it, which caused braking! Therefore, a 64-bit Windows 10 SSD was installed in place of the HDD (the HDD was equipped with 32-bit Windows 7 Starter, which was sharply limited in functionality), and the screw went in a DEXP AT-DH02 sled to replace the CD drive as backup storage! Thanks to this rationalization, the laptop began to work a little faster, but still remained a brake due to the AMD E-300 CPU with a clock speed of 1.3 GHz! And this is despite the increase in the amount of RAM to 6 GB, cleaning it from dust and changing the thermal paste, thanks to which its cooler became less noisy and the CPU began to heat up less! On October 25, 2022, I checked it with the Victoria program. She found the bad sector. Apparently, he was the cause of the brakes! Now used as a backup storage! As of December 2, 2022, the status of the HDD is as follows. With 83% clogging, the read and write speeds are 32.06 and 22.23 Mb / s, respectively. The drive has been powered on over 5400 (over 5600 according to HD Sentinel) times for 21796 hours (908 days, 4 hours)

Pros
  • Relatively inexpensive!
Cons
  • It was a terrible brake - the system was loaded for 10 minutes! And at the time of purchase, its volume was clearly too small - only 320 GB!

With its pros. Service life (It has been working for many years, but it farts and crackles, but there are no bad sectors) Has cons: - Must be quiet, but farts and crackles in operation - Slow - It is heated, up to 50 degrees in a long load.

A terrible disk for a laptop and for everything else . since I would not use it for storage, I read reviews - they say that they pour on easy, but for everything else it is just a brake.

After 2-3 years, a replacement is needed.

There is a Packard bell in the laptop, they don’t live that long, but in reality he is six years old and he is now working, but he just thought about changing it now because of the drizzle that had just begun.

Pros: Worked well for exactly 3 years Different cons: After three years of service, he suddenly began to be wildly stupid, everything worked through a stick. Well, then Windows refused to boot at all

The upper surface above the RAM and hard decently heats up. Perhaps this is from the not ideal design of the laptop.
