Black2

Is the western digital Black2 any good? My Y510P's HDD just bricked, asks for a password, and Lenovo want me to send the whole laptop back.

My advice would be to for a Samsung EVO instead.

The 500GB model can be had for less the Black2 and the 750GB model for just a bit more.

I'd be more interested in how the disk is asking for a password? 0.o.

Sure a BIOS password hasn't been set?

Nope, its a password put on by the manufacturer, seagate have said so.

Not a bios password by any chance?
