No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

To summarize:

- I bought it in a gaming PC - it justified itself, loading games is fast enough, in open world games it is also, in my opinion, enough;
- If in games it is important to boot first, take an SSD;
- If you need more serious tasks and higher speeds - take an SSD;
- If you need reliability, take top-end SSDs.
- If you need a file washer - take the E300 series with a speed of 5900 rpm;
- If you need technology, take WD and Seagate. Toshiba is just a drive, no frills.

At first I was very upset with the purchase because of the wild vibration, but now I am generally satisfied.

Pros

- Price/volume ratio; - Do not forget about the spirit of Hitachi and IBM - there is hope for seriousness; - Read-write speed at the beginning of the disk 205-210 MB / s - EXCELLENT; - The speed does not depend on the interface - I have a disk plugged into my sata 2; - A very simple disk on a set of technologies - no parking, three PMR plates, heads fly like crazy without stopping; - For the above reason, most likely, it is relatively easy to restore in service centers.

Cons

- Noisy. I screwed the sled harder to the case in the lower part of the basket, slightly propping it up with power cables (harsh cable management) - the drive hums tolerably in this way, but it still hums and vibrates. Without these actions, he simply endured the brain with his hum. The disk is definitely unbalanced, although it is not known whether it is worth demanding more for this money. When reading and writing, it rattles tolerably, but quite clearly (I think there is a lack of light AAM in this regard); - VERY slow spin. 6-7 seconds the disk starts, I have never seen this before; - Judging by the reviews, the guarantee is symbolic - you will be sent for scratches from the sled, and you will either fight or go and buy a new disc.
