  • Good performance, saves power, cool, silent, Advanced Format (4K alignment)
  • A bit expensive, consistently slower random access times
  • The WD Scorpio Blue WD7500BVPT exhibits a good performance and is also the highest capacity 2.5-inch standard height laptop hard drive. With a 750 GB capacity, which is quite a bit more than the earlier 640 GB, it is possible to store more data, video,...

  • Sheer capacity, Priced well
  • Disk access times
  • The Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD7500BPVT is a quiet and quick 2.5-inch hard drive for road warriors who need lots of storage on the go. Being able to store 750GB into this internal drive, is a barrier breaker of sorts, for data storage capacity.How...

  • Abstract:  Remember when 500GB was the most you could get from a notebook drive? It seems like most vendors have made the transition to 640GB. Western Digital even has its own 750GB model that fits within the 9.5 mm z-height. So, which of these drives is the best...

  • Large capacity, Cool and quiet, Good battery life,
  • Performance is only average, even for a 5400rpm drive,
  • The WD6400BEVT is a reasonable performer. People looking for maximum performance should look at other drives such as a 7200 rpm or, if your budget allows, SSDs or hybrid drives. For people who want the lowest cost per Gigabyte and can live with slower overall performance the WD Scorpio Blue is a solid choice. The capacity offers lots of space for movie and music fans. The drive is quiet, stays co

  • Abstract:  Then, unexpectedly, another 640GB model popped up in the Scorpio Blue series. The change of the second letter in the model name from E to P denotes a transition to 4KB formatting. Yes, it is the same Advanced..
