Great product, a pleasure to use.

Bought for home PC. Personally, I don't know absolutely silent hard drives for 7200 - I looked at the reviews on YouTube - everything +/- is also noisy in this price range (and for fasteners, I think, the same situation).
The speed in the photo was measured through the AgeStar 3UBT2 docking station via usb3.0.

Special thanks to Lime Store for a working hard drive with 0 operating hours and  employees for not crashing it on the way (on a small cardboard box from the seller there is a tiny inscription on the seal sticker "fragile goods" - I think that no one has seen it).

Pros

Price-adjusted volume, fast, cold, buffer at 512.

Cons

1) I would not call it completely silent when recording: after unpacking, I put it in the docking station half a meter from my ear and while copying two of my old hard drives to it at the same time . there is sound. In the case under the table on the rubber spacers of the sled (due to the design features, the hard on them, by and large, simply lies not tightened with screws - see point 2), I also hear a little from time to time, but I would not call it straining. 2) If you have a sled with a lower mount to the hard, then immediately think about how you will mount it - there are simply no middle holes, the outer ones are for a short bolt (well, 9 pancakes, I understand).
