Buying from Amazon
Just like a FYI, my catch is if you buy this ordering of HP of no matter whom, buy it of the Amazon. I have several. Those can go the bad one, particularly if you take it with you everywhere - the 500 gigaoctets do not seem to heat close as much as the 750 gigaoctets. Well I made go a 750gb the bad one - just the closing started upwards on me thus me could not reach the data approximately for 10 months after I bought it. There did not envisage was any hope to obtain a reasonable replacement (our time is worth the sorrow something too much), but I sent to the Amazon an email asking them that if they could suggst somebody I should come into contact at Hewlett Packard to discover if it had means dispute-limited there to replace it under the warrantee. The Amazon answered to say the next day they had already FedEx' D I an ordering of replacement during the night (their cost), and included a label of forwarding to enable me to return the hard order to them at their cost. I thus, the return was free. But not only that, they still gave me credit rating $7.50 on my account right for my use of their label of free forwarding that one which I cannot appear yet outside. That really moves to the advantage to value added to buy them directly. I never did not see such a service elsewhere anywhere - but then I become thoughtless. I would not buy it anywhere elsewhere in this moment. Better, Rani


almost portable, but not really!
If you have an HP Pavilion desktop PC with the personal media drive bay, then this is an absolute must have...especially if the PC is Windows Media Center edition. I bought the HP Pavilion m8300f and I added this 750GB Personal Media Drive to the already exsisting 640GB HD for a total of 1,400GB (or 1.4TB) storage. Just to give an idea, a 2-hour movie that's recorded & stored is approx 7-8GB, so it adds up fast. Admittedly, this HP Personal Media Drive is not really portable in the classic sense as compared to Western Digital's Passport series. I use the WD 250GB in addition to my Sony VAIO notebook PC when I'm on the road travelling.


HP HD7500S Media Drive 750GB
This unit sometimes happened in one week to place the order that that grooved well in the compartment on my media of HP centers and functioned impeccable since the installation, I will buy another unit for my other computer of HP in next weeks.


750 Gigs!
This products performs flawlessly and is much more convenient than installing a 2nd internal hard drive. Best part is you can take it with you anytime and carry your collections to other computers. Costs a little more but worth it!


another good product from HP
This more than of the services it is goal and slips easily into my quadruple of HP of office and makes things simple and has an enormous capcity storage. HP Thank you!


Great backup drive
I bought 2 of these orders to employ like protection. I keep one with work and the other in the computer to make differential protections each night. IT slips well into the personal compartment of media of the m9040n. Parfait. I agree with the others criticize which amazons mislabeling it because an order of media of pocket could be muddling, particularly if you stripped does your work to know what you buy. Wish of man I they had an order of media of pocket 750GB. Now that are nothing to astound soon.


Perfect Fit
This personal order of media is a perfect adjustment for the house m9040n of HP. My HP downloaded the orders automatically. There is no software. It is play of catch N right ' and with the difference in some others criticize, I did not note any noise of the whole to come from the ventilator on my PC or the order itself. There is less expensive are added on the hard orders out from there but they are external. The free series of agent of Seagate comes to mind as good external hard order in my experiment. But, if you have a HP or Compaq which will adapt to the personal media lead internally, then it is in value the additional money in my opinion. I agree with another critic who said that "I feel as this order achieves my HP". Naturally, I am sure that it was the plan all HP length to create a situation where the purchasers of HP feel compulsive to drop a couple from one hundred males or on the hard order of HP instead of a cheaper external order. That functioned.


What You Pay for
Formats with approximately 689 gigs available of space. Thus have already the personal slit of drive of media built in my Hewlett Packard the fast fitting of precision of slide was perfect. The ventilator is not apparent unless your ear is directly on the central processing unit of treatment. Otherwise, the noise is proportioned and not harming me since I stop it to go to sleep. Great present for Christmas.


Great, compact drive - especially if you own an HP with a Media Drive bay
To begin this review, I would like to specify that this order functions with models of HP other than those included in description. My complaints of the HP m9040n it supports only the personal orders of media 500MB and the media of led pocket 160MB, but this perfectly worked order 750GB and was recognized immediately. I had a certain number of external hard orders, and it is my favourite by far. The 750GB gives you 698GB of space usable (to employ standard 1GB = 1000MB). If you have a HP with personal media lead the compartment, this slips simply inside and receives the power and the connection of USB of the PC, thus any additional cable is not necessary. To connect it with a machine not-HP, it includes an adaptor of power and the cable of the USB - I was disappointed a little by the way in which the adaptor of power is installed (it is an electric cable thick 3-pronged, just like that employed to connect your computer or monitor, which connects then in a brick of power and then to the order itself - not most portable if you project to employ it on the outward journey). I would also like a connection of cable of fire as speeds of USB can limit, particularly if you have a great number of devices of USB in service. The order is very quiet (compared with my WD Mybook, it is almost completely quiet). The ventilator also aligns with the slits in the back of the machines of HP to allow the flow of air once used in personal media lead the compartment. I employed this order during a few weeks and finds up to now it to be worthy of confidence - I did not make it "disappear" as of other orders have, it also did not give me errors while transferring from the files (even a file transfer of 550 gigaoctets to the order went without problems - it just took many hours!). The visual contents sliding ring function very well (no stammering). I cut tested any of the functions of help still, but the machines of HP which have a compartment of drive for him also to have "an easy button of help" on the system. Very satisfied with the order and others the next time would buy that I need a new order.


completed system
Marvelous addition to my new HP Pavilion Media Center desktop computer. Drive slid into designated slot and immediately started up. The computer took a minute or two to recognize the new drive but one recognized has worked flawlessly. I like the look of the drive in the slot and will leave the cover door open to ventilate and show off.

Using build-in software have already ran a backup and file verification of "C" drive in under 7 hours (almost 140 GB of data saved). I have not been troubled by any fan noise. Only issue remaining regards the pro-loaded files on the drive which consume over 50 GB's of memory. Near as I can tell most are foreign language versions of application and instructions. Can I safely delete them without HP coming and knocking on my door?



It's Personal, Not Pocket
The title of the Amazon identifies this correctly as the "personal" media lead, but in the technical details, and description of product, it indicates the order of media of "poche". This ambiguity creates confusion. My HP employs the ordering (larger) personal of format and has the larger slit, but some of them use the smaller slit of "poche". The Amazon should fix this.


Good Drive but fan is LOUD
Either installed in the HP Media computer or standalone on the desk, when the fan comes on it's way too loud. I am returning it.


Great!
This is a great Hard Drive for Any Computer. I have a Dell Laptop and I wanted a Big Hard Drive that would look good on my desk but was also compact enough to take it on the go. Its fast, I copied 50+ Gbs to it in less than an hour. It has a fan so it never really gets hot (just a little noisy, but its not that loud.) The only problem i have had is after i copied a lot of movies on to it, I wasn't able to safely disconnect it so i had to shut my computer down to unplug it. Haven't had any problems since then. Highly Recommended.


Verry good hard drive
This hard drive works great on my HP media center computer, it fits right in the opening for it. If you are looking for an external drive that fits in your HP PC this drive works on personal media drive aplications not pocket media drive.


wrong drive
It is a good order with much storage but the Amazon has mislabeled this product. I bought it because this is called "an order of media of pocket" which would adapt the slit of media of pocket on before my computer of HP. Which Amazon is really sold is "a personal order of media" which is too large manner to adapt the slit on a computer of HP.
