8TB Seagate Backup Plus Hub Desktop Hard Drive with Data Recovery Services Review

This disc is to hold your breath, connect it to your computer, throw information into one stream and put it on a shelf (or better in a safe with lead walls) until better times. More details below. I love miniature system units, I decided to collect even less and already three 3TB disks were not included in it. I decided to buy one 8TB disk for 16000r (not a small amount of money), since the three-ruble note was where to attach it. I read the reviews here on the market, yes, they were bad, but…

I bought and took it as a gift to my father for the New Year in another city. The box was sealed with a film and outwardly did not cause suspicion. Items were not opened at checkout. The disk itself turned out to be without a film inside. My worst purchase - 100 per GB. The receipt says: HDDP Seagate STEL8000200. There was a Seagate folder structure on the disk, a file with a serial number, which we even managed to register, but there were no utilities. Seagate Dashboard identified the drive as

It is very good that the switching wires are long enough. The USB cable is a bit stiff, but not critical. I came with a four-month certificate for Adobe Cloud for photographers :-). Many in the reviews write that it gets very hot, during my work the disk is moderately warm. But I use (so far) only for archives - I put it and forgot it. Included is a replaceable plug for the power supply (suddenly this is important for someone).

The speed is quite, they don’t rattle, they don’t knock, they don’t buzz, they usually sleep. All of course, they were cut to the weak UPS.

I have been using this model for over 2 years. No problem. There is no overheating. Purely for backup or archive, the ideal solution. Not for daily use, although read and write speeds are good. If the cluster size is 4096 (the smallest), the write speed is 10-15 megabytes per second. I set the cluster size to 1 megabyte, the write speed increased to 120 megabytes per second.

The disks are pulled out of the box and inserted into the system unit in 4 pieces, with additional cooling of each quad from a 12cm fan. They are assembled into a single RAID6 array with a useful volume of 43.6 TB using the Adaptec ASR-51245 controller and work 24/7 without much load. The temperature in this mode is 30-34 degrees.

I read reviews about how such giants pour in with inept use, so I followed all the recommendations: - after purchase, I checked SMART, ran tests, fixed the read / write speed - I don’t install under torrents, I didn’t install any applications, I record in one stream with speed and temperature control - the main screw profile - backups. This is written in the title, and it is assumed in the order of work. Therefore, everything archived - to external, everything current, including downloading…

The high speed with which work can be completed is a benefit. Durability, as evidenced by the fact that it has survived multiple falls from the height of the table:) There are additional USB ports, which can be helpful in the event that all of the ports are in use. With these drawbacks: Because the wire is not securely fastened, it occasionally comes loose on its own. Memory devices are the only type of device that can be attached to the USB ports.

I use about a week. Hard censures, while, does not cause. There is an identical one on 4TB, from which all infa was dumped on this disk. I use it purely as a data storage, so the speed is not so important. When copying data to it, it shows 150 MBps. In my case, this is quite enough.

I will highly recommend this CD to my friends and family. Has some pros: Speed! Connected to the motherboard, I only have 3.0 there Transferred everything that is from the computer, now it’s not scary that the disk on the computer will die! And he's 10 years old. Has some cons: While they are not there, judging by customer reviews, they should not be .

Unpacking andcomnnecting briefly Has pros: Stylish look and quiet operation. No noise, no heat. The USB hub allows you to connect additional USB storage devices. Different cons: Speed, in fact, 26-27 megabytes per second. The existing indicator is not at all clear why - it is either always on or always off.

Some pros: I have three of these. Very pleased in work, two outputs for all sorts of adapters, charging, etc. Another 4 months of subscription to the package with Photoshop and Lightroom. Some cons: It heats up to 55 degrees during operation, hard drives do not even get 50 degrees inside the case

Its pros: It works :) Copies fast enough, for a month now, without any complaints. Some cons: Indeed, it makes quite a lot of noise during operation, at first it was unusual .

With its pros. price, + High speed; + Data backup; + Extended manufacturer's warranty. Cons below: terms (remote warehouse) and more so far They are not, yet)) Time will tell how long it will last, we'll see, then I will add a review))

Its pros: Works smartly enough for my tasks. Allows you to mount directly from it without delay. Has some cons It stands on the table, sometimes it starts to vibrate unpleasantly.

Has some pros Stylish look, quiet operation, not very hot. Glowing indicator on the front panel and USB host! now I have a separate bunch of external drives)) Some cons: Larger than I expected, this is not critical, but I had to make room on the table)

Has some pros I filled the 8TB disk with video content and was sincerely surprised that the TV set saw it, everything is started by the TV player, without problems. Its cons: Dimensions . if only they could learn how to stuff the stuffing into a smaller box.

Pros below: Capacity, compact, easy to connect. Writes large files quickly. Has some cons In principle, nothing so serious, except that the TV does not see such a volume. As they say, you can do a breakdown, I don’t.

Discs of this model have been purchased in two distinct places across the world. The discs were sent in their original packaging, the stickers on them untouched. Because the package was not opened at that time, there was no inspection performed at the scene. On the disk, it was feasible to write a certain quantity of data; but, after that point, the process would fail with an error message. After I reconnected the drive, it asked me to format it, but it didn't work either. There is a…

Shortly following the completion of the transaction, I simply connected the disk to the home server, activated the monitoring program (sintenel hard drive), and then began the process of copying the server's data to the disk using the script. When I opened the monitoring window again, the temperature of the disk was 59 degrees, and the copy speed had dropped significantly. However, by the time I opened the monitoring window, 2.5 terabytes of data had been successfully copied. I used robocopy…
