Review on πŸ’Ύ KPAN Portable External Hard Drive, HDD Storage Type-C/USB 3.1 UASP, Up to 120 MB/s Read Speed, PC MacBook TV PS4 Xbox Compatible, Smartphones Laptop Desktop (320GB, Black) by Lance Harrison

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Matches advertised speed, good value for money but activity light is very dim

Achieve read and write speeds better than 130MB/s. See attached test results. I also ran my local hard drive for comparison and the USB speeds beat the internal hard drive. The local disk is shown as a dotted line in the diagram. The red case is aluminum and feels solid and solid, but very slippery. I have a problem with the activity monitor. It is very important to see the Activity Monitor for troubleshooting and just general confidence in work. The light on the Kpan is so small and faint that you can only see it if you look directly at it. If you step to the side, the already weak light disappears completely. I'm deducting 1 star from the rating due to a lighting issue. It uses a standard USB connector, which compares well to other drives, and uses some incompatible connectors. At $45 it looks good and is in the lower 50th percentile of the equivalent. hard drives.

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Almost everything is included
