Massive capacity - Whether they are in an external drive or a notebook computer, WD's 320 GB 2.5-inch drives offer the most available capacity for space-hungry operating systems like Windows Vista?, plus plenty of room left over for photos, music, and video
Fast and Efficient - With 5400 RPM spin speed and 12 ms access time, even the most demanding customer will appreciate the performance achieved by WD Scorpio drives.
Quiet - In a notebook drive, silence is golden. WD's exclusive WhisperDrive combines state-of-the-art seeking algorithms to yield one of the quietest 2.5-inch hard drives on the market. These algorithms also optimize the way a drive seeks for data, which significantly improves power consumption. So now silence (and longer battery life) is golden
Reliable and Rugged - WD's ShockGuard technology protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks. WD's SecurePark parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved non- operational shock tolerance
Tested for Compatibility - We perform tests on hundreds of systems and a multitude of platforms in Western Digital's FIT Lab and Mobile Compatibility Lab to give our customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems

Summary: Works great for PS3
Comment: I just replaced mine 40GB PS3 drive a couple weeks ago with this and it worked fantastically.
Just a few notes about the process. You *can* re-download anything you have purchased, but a better way is to do a full harddrive backup using the PS3 backup utility. I didn't have a spare hard drive or flash drive large enough to accomplish this, but I do have a 60GB 5th Gen ipod, and it worked fine. There are plenty of tutorials online that show how to do it, including a great one on youtube that helped me out.
Two things to know if you go that route, make sure to sync all your trophies on all accounts before you backup, as all trophy data is NOT backed up. When you play each game for the first time after you backup/restore, it will reinstall the trophies on your local system and then you must re-sync to pull them back down from the PSN.
Unfortunately, this will mean that trophies you got on games you rented or borrowed will never show up on your local PS3 system again (unless you re-get the game), but they still show on your PSN profile and factor into your overall ranking.
Hope this helps.

Summary: WD 2.5" 320 GB Scorpio rocks!!
Comment: I purchased this drive as a replacement internal hard drive for my White MacBook and have been nothing but pleased with it. In the past I had messed around with the hard drive before, but still I went to OWC.com where there is a video explaining exactly what to do from battery, bracket and hard drive removal, to replacement. I have had no problems and given that its a 5400 rpm drive as was the original drive, I have not seen any effect on battery life. Seeing that I still have over 200 GB of free space still makes me giddy.

Summary: No regrets.
Comment: I have to say, after doing considerable research on upgrading my 60GB PS3, I choose this hard drive above all. It's very easy to install, and was damn near the same exact price of the 250GB HDD (made by the same company, which is now $5 more than the 320gb at the moment for some odd reason) that I was contemplating putting in. So, yeah, you're getting 100 extra gigs at the cost of nothing. Awesome deal, can't believe how easy it was to take out the old hard drive and put this one in. There's also no need to do anything with the HDD if you plan on using it as a PS3 HDD substitute. It'll format it to what it needs and everything.
Fantastic product. I would recommend it to anybody who wants to upgrade their PS3's. You won't regret it.
