'lo childs I'd like to replace the current internal laptop HDD. At the moment it has a 500GB one but I'd like to replace it with a 1TB drive. Anyone here have any solid recommendations for a good and reliable replacement brand/make/model? Mark |

Dunno about in MacBooks, but I've used 1TB Samsung Spinpoints in my NAS box (which takes 2.5" drives) and they've performed admirably - been spinning continually for ages with no problems so far. |

Hi Mark, You should give serious consideration to a 7200RPM drive such as this: Hitachi (HGST) Travelstar - check user reviews at this link. Reasons - fastest (no suitable 10,000rpm) available, *quiet(er), **lower power consumption. * & ** - dependent your current drive specs, but will NOT be noisier NOR use more power/generate more heat. HTH, Ian. PS - Have installed/used several of these - all still going strong! |

Why not replace the HDD with a SSD then put a 1tb in-place of the CD drive? |
