Review on Toshiba 2 TB HDWL120UZSVA Hard Drive: Efficient Storage Solution by Boyan Denkov ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

Unexpectedly small thickness - only 7 mm. Before buying, I expected that it would be thicker, because it seemed to me that with such a capacity there should be two pancakes. But no, one. With its pros: The term of use is not long yet, but I found that all Toshiba brand notebook HDDs that I used were shockproof. It is possible that this will show up. Earlier, I read that modern disks have acceleration sensors built in, and if the turned on disk falls, then the heads have time to park while it flies, and thus do not damage the working surfaces of the pancakes. When my HDD of other manufacturers fell off the table, they had broken sectors in a considerable amount - there was no shock resistance. When Toshiba disks fell, they did not appear, although, of course, in the SMART of the disk, these cases were recorded in the shock counter. With its cons: Slow read/write speed. However, no one expected high from an economical laptop HDD with a rotation speed of 5400.
