Description
The Western Digital Black is a 2.5 HDD hard drive, with a capacity of 500GB and rotational speed of 7200 RPM. This speed is recommended for all uses such as file storage, program and game installation.
It operates with the communication protocol SATA III and is recommended for home use. It is the most modern SATA standard and the motherboard must support it for the disk to operate at its maximum capabilities. It can be connected without any problem to SATA II ports, but it will work at lower speeds. Additionally, the disk can be installed in a Playstation 4.
For installation in a desktop computer, you will need a SATA III data cable and an available SATA port on the motherboard. You will also need an available power supply cable for the SATA device from the power supply. For installation in a laptop, no cables are needed and the disk simply plugs into the SATA slot. To replace the disk in a Playstation 4, follow the instructions provided by SONY, depending on the model you have. You can find all the relevant information by searching for "PS4: Upgrading the hard disk drive (HDD)" on the official Playstation website.

Unfortunately, this specific hard drive failed within 6 months of operation due to bad sectors. I have requested a replacement, but we will see how it progresses. Generally, I have never experienced something like this with WD and it is disappointing that they mention sending you a "re-certified" hard drive instead of a "brand new" one.
Update 10/12/20: After approximately one month, WD sent me a replacement hard drive, which has been functioning satisfactorily for 2 months now.

Did you find this review helpful? The best mechanical disk, like the entire black series of wd. Practically you have peace of mind, it is fast, the price is reasonable, but you get what you pay for.
