About this product
This Hitachi HTS725050A9A360 is a 2.5-inch internal laptop hard drive, providing 500GB of storage. It operates at a brisk 7200RPM rotation speed and includes a 16MB cache. Designed for compatibility with various laptops, including specific Lenovo models like the B590-20208, this drive offers a performance edge over slower 5400RPM alternatives while still utilizing traditional mechanical storage technology.
Our take
For those sticking with traditional hard drives but wanting a bit more pep, this Hitachi 500GB 7200RPM drive is a solid contender. The faster rotation speed provides a noticeable improvement in load times and overall responsiveness compared to its 5400RPM cousins, making it suitable for a primary drive in an older laptop. The 16MB cache is standard for this type of drive. At $62.99, it's a reasonable upgrade if you need mechanical storage with a performance boost, though it won't match the speed of an SSD.
