A great option for this money, one of the best offers.

They dragged it on flights, and dropped it on the floor, and chased it in the tail and mane in one very warm country for several years so that the plastic of the case could not be touched, and for years 2 after all of the ordeals, being taken out of plastic, he quietly and peacefully ended his life in his home NAS. This was an old portable 2TB Seagate that had served with moving for 6 years. Which, in my perspective, is a really commendable accomplishment. I hope that this one, which I purchased for $7,999 to replace the file storage and backup of home photographs, will endure as long as the last one did. It was taken exactly 4 terabytes after reading an article on habrรฉ published by a reputable western office. In the post, the author stated that the most of their issues were with 2 terabyte versions of seagates, which had a failure rate of less than 10%. From 4 terabytes, it decreased to the level of HGST 1.5%, while the sample was under 10 thousand dollars for both; this is taking into consideration the fact that the Hitachi price is at least two thousand dollars more. Let's check to see if that's the case, shall we? In any event, Hong Kong does not have any equivalents for 4 terabytes and up to 8 kilobits. When I placed the order from Germany, I was nervous because it was for a hard drive and not a processor. CrystalDiskInfo 7.1.1 with firmware version 0001 and an interface SATA Transfer Mode SATA/600 Standard ACS-3 / ACS-3 Rev 4 Rotation Rate 5425 Rpm SATA Features SMART and NCQ CrystalDiskMark 5.2.2 read and write speeds for five 1GB tests: sequential q32t1 189.8 178.2 4k, sequential q32t1 1.749 8.860 seq 190.0 179.5 4k, and sequential q32t1 0.585 4.750

Pros
  • When tested, read and write speeds of 190/180 when the temperature was chilly (37-39 degrees Fahrenheit), which is cheaper than competitors' offerings.
Cons
  • No, not for my purposes.
