Toshiba Storage Device Division offers a line of 5,400 RPM 2.5-inch HDDs in a new slim design optimized for industry-leading storage applications. The latest HDD series, MQ01ABF050, provides a wide capacity range from 250 GB to 1TB in a 9.5-millimeter-high design with maximum 2 platters.

Great for use in standard laptop computersand the SATA III 6Gbps interface offers better performance compared to older SATA II (3Gbps) based hard drives.

The advanced MQ01ABF050 targets markets such as portable multimedia and gaming notebooks, mobile workstations and other capacity-hungry applications like external HDDs. In addition, the drives also feature very good power efficiency value of 0.00055 for the 1TB model. Due to the "Silent-Seek" technology featured in these drives, the HDDs are extremely quiet: Ultra-silent single-platter drives boast acoustic specifications of 19dBA (seek) and 17dBA (idle) making them almost indistinguishable to the human hear.

With its compact size and best-in class specifications, the SATA MQ01ABF050 series is the perfect choice for use in devices where a combination of sleek form factor and high capacity capabilities are essential. As with all Toshiba HDDs, the complete series is halogen-free and RoHS compatible, therefore, exceptionally environmentally friendly.

Includes AF Advanced Format feature.

I don't have a full time scale for this review, having only purchased this item a few weeks ago (the drive I removed from the laptop was the same type and had failed) but assuming that the previous drive failed down to bad luck, then for the price this is an excellent hard drive and perfect for the job I needed to do.
