Western Digital 500GB 2.5 Playstation 3/Playstation 4 Hard Drive (PS3 Fat, PS3 Slim, PS3 Super Slim, PS4)

My son called (who am I kidding..he texted) from college and asked if I could order this for him so he could fix his PlayStation following a YouTube DIY video (and yes, I paid for it with the promise he would clean out the pond for me). Got it fast from the seller and he installed it according to the video..and it WORKED! He was happy college student again...( God, I hope he just graduates on time!)

Its advertised as a replacement for PS3/PS4 drives, but I was sent a 7200 RPM drive. In consoles, 5400 RPM is better due to less heat generation and the performance benefits of going from 5400 to 7200 are negligible. If I bought this for a laptop or desktop Id think, SCORE, but since the use is for a console a 5400 RPM is the better route for longevity. I initially started the return process but figured the hassle of repackaging and finding a UPS store isnt enticing. For 28 bucks Ill still use it in the console. For 28 bucks, its a fantastic price for what I got and for just about every other application other than tight confines. Overall pleased. If it had been a 5400 RPM, which is better for console use, I would have given 5 instead of 4.

This is the third WD HDD Ive ever had, and its fate has mirrored the previous two. It lives for about a year and crashes. I used mine as a PS3 hard drive replacement and despite being in an open, breathable and overall cool environment, all it took was a few digital downloads to send it overheating and burn out.

Worked great easy to follow you tube video on how to install.

This is exactly what I needed to repair a ps3. It was easy to install and mad a young man very happy.

These are good hard drives I bought this one for my grandson he needed it for his PlayStation it was easy to install and his PlayStation was up and running very good price good quality

would definitely recommend this to any customer. this work perfect without any delay and slowness

Installed this and and 80 GB old PS three. So far everything is working fine. Highly recommend.

Funcionó perfectamente en PS4 buena velocidad de carga en los juegos y en la instalación de los mismos.

Needed a replacement for my Playstation. Just like the original.
