Problems with the 7200.11's are generally caused by crappy firmware that Seagate shipped with early production runs. Current firmware fixes all of those freezing and hanging problems.

the barracuda 7200.11's are bad, very high failure rates, try the 7200.12's they dont have near the failures.

This is a full-size drive, and will not fit in the case of your Lenovo T61 laptop.This would fit in full-size desktop CPU cases.

Since the original post was written in May, it's likely that you've already replaced the drive. If you haven't, and are still looking, here's a link as to the type of drive you need for the T61. This is only 360G, but it should point you in the right direction - http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/web/LenovoPortal/en_US/integration.workflow:ProductDisplayItem?IsBundle=false&GroupID;=38&Code;=43N3411&OID;=:00000026:000022F6:&cid;=shopping.com_43N3411&

I would recommend using one on Thecus's compatibility list: http://www.thecus.com/download/compatibility/hdd/N4520SERIES_N2800_N4800_N4800Eco_N5550_N4510U_N7510_HDD_SSD_list.pdfAlso consider that Enterprise rated drives will last longer and potentially perform a bit faster, but might not be worth the price bump for just backups.

I use both WD and Seagate for storage - I have a Blue Face WD10 EARS model, I've had that for about 7 years, I abuse it daily. On my other system, I bought a low-speed (5400 rpm?) Seagate ST1000DL - Which got some nasty reviews on Amazon - But I've had that for 2 years and no trouble, it's only for storage so I don't need the speed. I don't have any SATA3 HDD's at all, I don't have any motherboards that support it. I'll have to get an Add-on Card

I installed 2 "Seagate Backup Plus 4TB USB 3.0 Black Desktop Hard Drive STCA4000100" and it seems to be working fine. I found it cheaper to pull them from the housings.

I am no expert so I took out the hard drive and looked at the specs and ordered a brand with same specs such as sata drive what the amount of memory i wanted and need there are sites you can go on and put in a search to find a compatible one with the specs you find on your hard drive , hoe this hels yes I am a woman and ever did this before but It worked fine. Good Luck

This enclosure should work. But note that it is a snap together plastic enclosure. You can't take a drive out and reuse the enclosure. It was designed to be sold as an external drive with the drive included. It is not reusable like enclosures designed to be sold alone as enclosures. UPDATE: Found the video about taking it apart without breaking pins. Cool. ALSO: I believe Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 drives are always SATA.

I cannot answer this one for several reasons. More info is needed on the current hard drive in the G71. You could have a solid state "hybrid" (SSHD) in there. These SSHD drives are ultra-thin. The Seagate hard drive you are inquiring about is not "ultra-thin" which may cause a problem. One thing I noticed, it appears your G71 may (again "may") have a SATA 6 interface. This Seagate is a SATA 3 which might be a bit slower even though the Seagate drive is 7200 RPM.

"Hi, I've installed this drive in my late 2010 MacBook Pro and it worked without problems.I don't know your drive, but according to this page: http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=HTS545025B9SA02-NDW-R it seems that it is a SATA drive.Since all SSD drives are SATA you should not have any problem at all by replacing it.Now, since your MacBook is 2009, the drive won't be able to deliver more than 1.5 Gbps or 3.0 Gbps ( it is capable of delivering 6.0 Gbps in a faster system such a Core I5 or Core I7) But don't worry, your laptop will be way faster than it is now.

This is backward compatible to sata 2 (3gbs). It's not listed as sata 1 (1.5gbs) compatible and even if it was your performance benefit would be drastically limited by sata 1. Your probably better off with a traditional hard drive.

You can download the spec sheet for this drive from Seagate at http://www.seagate.com/www-content/product-content/barracuda-fam/desktop-sshd/en-us/docs/desktop-sshd-data-sheet-ds1788-2-1308us.pdf PDF details show NAND Type/Size: MLC/8GB; DRAM Cache (MB): 64.

I bought 2 units with 2 Seagate Barracuda 3 TB HDD SATA 6 Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 7200 RPM 3.5-Inch drives 7 months ago. Both of the drives have been running 24/7 non stop without any issues.

I've installed it on my PS3 (original 60GB model) and the Seagate Momentus XT 500GB works just fine. Boot times are faster and so are read times. Installs (write times) are just as fast as any other 7200RPM drive I've used before. Before you remove your old drive, reboot it and time it just to get an idea of your boot times. Then install the new drive, boot it once then reboot it again. You'll notice a nice improvement over your old drive.

Not sure... Maybe someone at Amazon made a deal with someone at Lenovo? Mine has the one T drive... The machine ROCKS.. The swappable bay means INFINITE storage.. so the one T drive didn't bother me...
