Hi, WD people, I need change my laptop hard drive, and then I am searching for a fresh one with better specifications and more capacity than the previous one. After looking for several brands and models I have decided to buy a WD drive, but I have two options yet. (WD7500BPKT Scorpio black or WD7500BPKX Black)
After reading them data sheets I can’t find any difference between both drives beyond price.
Can you tell me where that difference is, if there is one.
Hi the difference is the WD7500BPKX is a sata 6 Gb/s advanced format drive. The advanced format you would only have to use the WD align tool if you are still useing Wi8ndows xp. The WD7500BPKT is a Sata 3 Gb/s Drive and is not a advanced format drive.So as you did not say if your laptop is Sata 6/Gb/s or Sata 3 Gb/s we can not tell you what one would work faster. If it has a Sata 6 Gb/s then go for the WD7500BPKX if it is Sata 3 Gb/s then use the WD7500BPKT . Either way both drive’s would work.
