  • 320GB is presently the highest capacity for 2.5" hard drive, Strong performance, Very cool, Very quiet
  • A 7200RPM model would be interesting, Three year warranty is OK, but five years would obviously be better
  • Western Digitals newest 2.5" drive made a splash when it was announced because it marked a new high in this form factors capacity. While all of that disk space in such a small package is great, it was all of the other things revealed during the revie...

  • Cost-effective, stays quiet and cool during operation, large storage capacity
  • Slightly slower read/write speed compared to competitors
  • If you want value for money and a low cost per gigabyte, then the Western Digital Scorpio Blue (WD5000BEVT) is probably the notebook hard drive for you. It may have a slightly slower read/write speed than competing drives, but it also provides the lar...

  • Western Digital’s latest installment of the Scorpio series drives is a great addition, especially for those looking for larger capacities for single drive situations like Notebooks. If you want to set up larger capacity RAID arrays in small form ser...

  • High capacity, good overall performance, practically silent operation
  • Could take a while to fill up The Final Word As a replacement drive for a Serial ATA-based notebook, the Scorpio is ideal. It runs cool and silently, and its performance was surprisingly good in our tests.

  • Abstract:  The Western Digital 320GB Scorpio sells online for around AU$285, which is not quite as good value in the dollar per Gigabyte stakes as the 250GB version (AU$205) it’s certainly not far off (89c per GB vs. 82c per GB) so there’s very little of...

  • Abstract:  WD is aggressively exploring higher capacities. The 640GB Scorpio Blue provides ample capacity and sweet performance for upper-mainstream notebooks and portable storage devices. The two announced 750GB and 1,000GB 2.5” drives won’t fit into most notebook designs due to their 12.5mm height, but they should still raise the bar for compact, high-capacity storage...

  • Abstract:  Verdict: The 640GB Scorpio Blue is ideal if you want lots of storage in your laptop, but 500GB drives are better value. Western Digital's latest 2.5in internal SATA hard disk has a huge capacity of 640GB. Although 750GB and 1TB models are available,...

  • The Western Digital Scorpio Blue 500GB is a worthy replacement to a standard, smaller drive already in place in your laptop. While not quite as quick as a 7200rpm drive such as the Hitachi 7K320, it should be quick enough for most users, especially fo...

  • Abstract:  The hard drive market seems to be spinning faster than the drives themselves, with news arriving on an almost daily basis. Seagate just announced that it will release flash SSD drives next year. Traditional hard drive maker Fujitsu first said that it i...

  • Abstract:  The Scorpio Blue range of laptop hard disks has a focus on capacity, leaving the Scorpio Black to cater for those who need high performance, but this 500GB model provides unbeatable capacity and performance. This is because the data is packed more d...
