The best thing for the money, I'm glad I chose this option.

It was the first hard USB 3.0 at the beginning of December 2022 at a price that was adequate, and because I already owned the identical one but only for 320 gigabytes and USB 2.0 and I was fully content with it, I decided to purchase this one instead. The topic may be formatted to NTFS in one minute using the software that is included in the kit; I consider this to be a speedy format. Note that the throughput of USB 2.0 is 480 Mbps, which is equal to 60 Mb/s; the throughput of Expresscard is 2.5 Gbps, which is equal to 312.5 Mb/s; and the throughput of USB 3.0 is 5 Gbps, which is equal to 625 Mb/s. Since I have a hard drive connected to the Expresscard USB 3.0 controller, and since it is supposed to work on USB 2.0, the problem most likely lies with the hard interface itself. It functions properly for me with only a single wire for both USB 2.0 and 3.0; the additional wire does not provide an increase in transfer rate, but it is necessary for laptops on which the amperage is low or for hubs, such as the USB contacts on the front panel of the system unit.

Pros
  • Even when using USB 2.0, my Sony VAIO AW1RXU/Q laptop is capable of reaching speeds of up to 35 MB/s while reading, 23 MB/s on average when writing, and 27 MB/s on average when working with files that are above 1000 MB in size.
Cons
  • The same files over 1000 MB are written to it at a speed of 43 MB / s, copied from it to a computer at a speed of 70-75 MB / s at the beginning, then it drops significantly - up to 45, so the increase was from 60 to 100 percent, which is very good for me, but it still does not reach 90 MB / s of recording, although it may be the fault of the controller, after all, I bought it today.
