Well finally I see my bill down ...
After 3 weeks of use, monstrous access times have shows on my Macbook. I tested everything in software and even reinstalled the system 2 times. Nada! I have access times of around 30 seconds on opening a single Finder window occasionally.
Having handed the 320GB original, everything works again. And here I thank Amazon to resume any equipment purchased between November 1 and December 31 to January 31 2012! Thank you!
So, I do not recommend it for a MacBook, it worked perfectly well three weeks, but I remain suspicious when its compatibility. While I think this is an isolated problem of drive ...
For my part, I want to hear no more of this model. I lost too much time (and hair) on to try to understand why it was not working properly. I think buying me a Hitachi 750 GB (same brand as the original hard disk) as soon as Amazon has repaid me :)
A wise!

[On the Amazon command]
I chose the quick delivery (about 8 more) and the order arrived by Chronopost battery the next day, my mailbox (thank you Amazon / Chronopost agreements).
Packages might have deserved to be better packaged. It was a bit light for a hard drive ... Anyway, he got no worries.
[On the product]
Well ... As expected, this is a hard disk 2.5 "SATA II (SATA 300 or if you prefer), 5400 r / min and a capacity of 1TB.
He 9mm good and conforms to the Amazon page. Fortunately, you say!
[Product usage]
I bought it to replace my original 320GB with my MacBook Pro (15 "model Core i5 2010), the latter becoming a little small for my audio and video editing.
The physical installation was carefree (thank you Apple). For fans in my case: take a Phillips precision screwdriver (really tiny) and a hex wrench equally tiny. Without these tools, replacing a disk MacBook Pro is impossible.
Physically installed and restored (4 hours installation), everything works perfectly and my 1000GB are there (mac 999.87Go after formatting).
[Recommendation]
I highly recommend it if you want to change the hard drive of your laptop, MacBook or your PS3.
Its size 9mm allows it to adapt easily to these media and its speed of 5400 rpm avoid many of overheating. Note on this point it is better to choose a 5400 r / min rather than 7200 r / min, except if your hardware was already equipped with a 7200. Because if you replace a 5400 by 7200, it will heat inevitably more and over time, it will not be good for your hardware (as a whole). A 7200 rev / min, for example, be avoided for a PS3.
So much for the little free info :)
