In a Sony Vaio SZ650N, it's a big upgrade over the stock 5400 RPM drive, but the battery drain is noticeable (whether that's related to the rotational speed or to the stock drive being a Hybrid HDD is the unanswered question here).
Installation is not easy but with a service manual it's not impossible either. The drive itself seems to be of high quality, although obviously it's too early to tell. On the road notebooks seem to eat through drives, so if WD offers a 5 year warranty I think that's a good sign.
Another small complaint: I wanted the drive with a free-fall sensor and purchased this instead. I think all the drives should be manufactured with this sensor, or it should be in bold letters in the product name, IE "WITHOUT FREE-FALL SENSOR". Because I'm not going to return the drive becuase of that little mistake, but given past fiascos with busted notebook drives I need all the protection I can get.
