Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

We never bothered to pay attention to WD. The employees at our company's computer repair department gave their recommendation. As a result, they were informed that they may take any disk they wanted from WD. Purchased disk is not merely delighted but quite pleased with the transaction. It should come as no surprise that checking the disk takes some time. The disk does not become hot to the touch. The radiator that is located on the top of the lid has a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius and is actively blown by a huge Hitachi Ultrastar cooler. Even though it was standing vertically, the Western Digital Blue had a temperature of 28 degrees Celsius. Doesn't produce noise. The ride is very devoid of noise. Light." Half a turn was used to wind it up." During the course of functioning without any "surprises." The tests revealed, first and foremost, an exceptionally high-quality magnetic surface, devoid of any badly readable areas, of the type that, for instance, Toshiba has an abundance of (I recently purchased one copy re-marked from Hitachi Deskstar). Tests conducted with a comparable brand-new Hitachi Ultrastar, which was comparable in capacity but had a smaller cache and was more expensive, revealed that the ratio of sectors of sizes 5, 20, and 150 was approximately identical. Only in sectors 50 does WD have 12 pieces, although Hitachi Ultrastar has as many as 1100; nonetheless, the passport speeds of Hitachi Ultrastar are slower than those of this WD, and according to my testing, they corresponded to the ones that were reported. The evaluation of speed varies greatly depending on the program. because, despite this fact, every program uses its own "parrots" to gauge success. CrystalDiskMark 3_0_2, using a volume and pass selection that was more or less correct (acceptable), showed a transfer rate of 218/170 MB per second. An AS SSD Benchmark Rus test that was more objective (specifically, the 2022 version with pre-installed and not configurable "volumes and passages") indicated 190/170 Mb/s. I would argue that the professional PC3000DiskAnalyzer application in the first half of the disk, which is naturally faster than the second half, showed speed jumps that were stable within the range of 180-190 MB/s. I will speak from personal experience in this matter. That you should use the PC3000DiskAnalyzer if you want an objective test of your computer's speed. You will be shown the speed of the disk in the form of a chart for each of its sectors, beginning with the first sector and continuing all the way to the last sector.

Pros
  • Quiet. Cold. Fast . actual rate of reading speed (and not in parrots) 180-190 mb / s
Cons
  • No
