Our take
For upgrading an older laptop that still uses a PATA/IDE interface, this Western Digital Scorpio Blue 320GB drive offers a substantial capacity increase. The 320GB is quite generous for a drive of this type, allowing for more applications and data storage. The 5400 RPM speed is typical for laptop drives and provides adequate performance for general computing tasks. The inclusion of shock resistance is a practical benefit for a portable device, adding a layer of durability. At $54.95, it's a good investment for extending the life and utility of a compatible laptop.
