Although I am not familiar with you laptop model, as long as it uses a 2.5" drive (most do) then it should work. Some laptop BIOS and drive combinations may not mesh perfectly, but that's pretty rare. NTFS is a file system you can choose when you reload your laptop. The drive itself is independent of file system.

Hello, as far as I know, this SATA drive will works flawlessly in your netbook or any other laptop. I hope it clarifies your questions. Regards. David

If the HD didn't fail this will work with an IDE or SATA drive so you should be able to use it.

dunno, the MK2552 is a SATA 300 interface, 250 gb drive, and if the a305 model laptop is that, and same size, it should work....looks like it is a SATA 150 with a 320 mb drive, a bit different.http://www.cnet.com/laptops/toshiba-satellite-a305-s6837/4505-3121_7-32976318.html

Yes it will. Mine has been working great. The drives are unit specific. Everything else (updates) come via the Internet which is not region specific. Mine works great!!

If it works with SATA/PATA/IDE drives of any kind, then yes it will. But be warned, make sure that you get one that's working properly and undefective, perferably a new one. Trust me, I got mine new and it works fine.

This is only my end user/Previous Intel Engineer/Microsoft Certied Office User Master unofficial response & attempt to help you in your Electronic device purchase; This is a SATA 2 HDD & as long as your Security system supports SATA 2, it should work. But, PLEASE check the WD Support & Compatibility Website for confirmation. Hope this helps! :-)

It should work as long as you have a sata connection. Are you replacing a factory drive or adding an additional ? If it will be replacing a factory drive it should work just fine. If you are adding an additional you would just need to make sure you have a sata cable free to plug into.

Yes. I replaced my failed 6 year old HDD in my dell inspiron 6400. It only lasted about a month though however I am very abusive with my computers using them in my workshop and whatnot

Hi, it is easy to check whether it will work or not. check the pin connector in product picture and find out whether it will mate with your Hard drive. I googled your description and looks like it will mate, just in case verify it with pin connector as i told above.

H: If your Laptop computer has PATA , it should work, but please be ware that you should look at the date manufactured on the drive, and also get information about the drive using a free software " SPECCY" -VERY IMPORTANT

Not being completely familiar with the internals of the device. I am also unable to find a perfect picture of the internals. What i will say is this drive is a standard laptop drive and if that is what that device uses then it will work. You will need to format the drive with windows in some way if you dont have a means on the device itself.

Hello This is a standard laptop drive 2.5IN Therefore it should work in any standard laptop 2.5in SATA Connection.

I'm not familiar with your laptop, but it worked in my Dell Inspiron 15 even though it was a different make and model than the original. I assumed it would work since they were both SATA drives(though I don't even know what that means!) and I had good luck.

Check to see what your current hard drive is in your system information or devices. If it' a 2.5" SATA then this drive should work. If you're wanting a second drive using this one for the boot drive, I can't say with any certainty but it your laptop allows for a second drive it should work. You will probably need to buy a kit which is the data connector and a mount bracket or quite often called a drive caddie. Google "Adding a second hard drive to your make and model of laptop". There should be plenty of information.

If your hdd is a 2.5 inch sata II type, it should work. I havent tried a sata I hdd.

Generally if it has a standard SATA connection, it should work. The only thing I could see a possible issue with would be the encryption that the drive uses and if special software would be necessary. I don't know much about that type of drive.
