The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

Newegg has the Western Digital WD5000BEVT (500GB 5400RPM) drive for $49.99 with free shipping (lower 48) after $10 instant savings.
Newegg.com - Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD5000BEVT 500GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Great deal for a great drive. I have one in my HP dv5t notebook and it works reasonably well, though a Scorpio Black 7200RPM drive is much faster.
