    I'm glad I got my laptop with this drive is is very good, I recommend this drive because you can play CS-source all night and your wrist wont get hot.
    It never reaches past 40C (HDTune), and is very quiet.

    If you want a good speed, cool & quiet HDD get this!

    It is a decent drive but not big difference in regards to accoustics or temp compared to other 5400rpm drives.
    As for performance it is the slowest of 5400rpm SATA drives in average transfer rates but does better at access time and ranks above average.
