Review: Used as TIVO Bolt replacement - Worked well for 2 years. Then the green screen of death on my TIVO Bolt. Turns out I should have used a hard drive rated for DVRs that uses CMR technology, not SMR which is what the Toshiba drive uses. So I increased the rating.
Review: It’s a Hard Drive. Try to Contain Your Excitement. - Ah yes, the Toshiba 1TB 5400RPM 8MB Cache SATA Hard Drive. Take a deep breath. I know—try not to get too worked up. It's a hard drive, people. Not a puppy. Not a pizza. Just a good old-fashioned spinning disc of mild enthusiasm. Let’s be real: nobody’s throwing a party because they bought a 1TB 5400RPM drive. There are no unboxing videos with dramatic music. No Instagram selfies with the caption “#HardDriveLife.” It’s not glamorous. It’s not thrilling. But you know what? It works. You plug it in, and it spins. It spins at a breakneck 5400RPM, which sounds impressive until you realize that’s basically a grandma in a rocking chair compared to SSDs. But hey, if you’re not trying to launch a rocket or edit a Marvel movie, this thing gets the job done just fine. It holds a full terabyte of whatever digital clutter you treasure—photos you’ll never look at, videos you’ll never delete, and probably 38 copies of the same file named “Final_Final_V2_Revised_REALFINAL.doc.” And that 8MB cache? Oh baby. That’s eight entire megabytes of lightning-fast buffer power. We’re practically in the future now. So yes—it’s a hard drive. It stores stuff. It spins. It exists. It’s the beige wallpaper of tech components. But sometimes, that’s all you need. Five stars, because it hasn’t exploded, caught fire, or questioned my life choices. What more could you ask for? (Try to stay calm.)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where can I get windows 10 drivers for this drive ?**
A: Because the drive does not come with an OS, you need to install it. Here's what you need: a blank flash drive of at least 8gb and a spare laptop. All you have to do is download Microsoft Windows 10 creation media from their website onto the flash drive (it'll ask where you want it to be downloaded to) - once that's done, insert the flash drive into the computer with the new hard drive and it'll take it from there.

**Q: Is this compatible with the Dell G3 15 gaming laptop?**
A: Yes you can use it as a external hard drive by getting a cord for it but as far as putting into a laptop no it's to big  .i use a hard-drive dock which makes using any hard drive easy .just make sure you format the hard drive most of them comes unformatted.

**Q: Does this drive have start up installed?**
A: Well I'm not sure what you're asking if you're using it for storage you controlled it by opening my computer where you see your drive c and d you should see the new hard drive you can use it to save things to it. If you're replacing your computer s hard drive you will have to install a Windows operating system to it a new hard drive is basically empty when you get it.

**Q: Does it work for HP Envy 17-j165eo laptop?**
A: Probably, I used it in a HP Pavilion dv7.
