Poor quality, not worth the money.

Died tightly, without warning. There were screws with the prerequisites for dying - I managed to copy the info, but then one day it didn’t start and that’s it.

Money to nowhere, poor quality of the goods.

I bought for ps3, I heard samsungs are very sensitive to cooling, maybe this is the reason. It’s also good that saves for games were not particularly needed, otherwise you can spend 200 hours in dysgay and then start all over again. Its pros: if the hard drive dies before the end of the warranty the merits are unimportant. Some cons: died seven months later, the surface was covered with troubles.

The HP 630 laptop that I bought came with this hard drive already installed. Windows took approximately 5 minutes to load from the very beginning onward. After using SMART for a period of six months, the indicators will display a warning regarding the calibration retry count and the current pending sector. Visually, Windows takes roughly 15 minutes to load, and occasionally the disk blocks IO, which causes the entire system to "freeze" for a couple of minutes at a time. However, the bad…

Pros
  • Hard drive found in a typical laptop
Cons
  • Failure to function after only six months of use

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

included in a laptop by Samsung. After two years, the laptop abruptly ceased turning on; it spins the Win7 petals on the splash screen but does not do anything else. The disk was not recognized by the system when parsing and sticking through the sata straight into the "large" machine were attempted. The BIOS was aware of it, which was a bonus. I generally saved data from drive D using a USB connection, an adapter, Acronis, and tambourines, then formatted everything into a single space…

Pros
  • spent two years living!
Cons
  • a tiny bit. Approximately 2.5 inches:

A worthless product, definitely not worth your money!

I've dealt with 15 samsas over the past year (most people go with the cheapest option), and today was the last one. At this point, I can't help but wonder what exactly he was working so hard on. The primary workload during those three months in external disk mode (included with the Buffolo MiniStation Extreme, date of purchase - March 2022) is the storage of non-critical data (!) And their occasional ating quality. When I come across glowing reviews, I couldn't help but wonder: who writes these

Pros
  • In no way amusing.
Cons
  • I'm not a fan of lottery products, and this one is no exception. The temperature rises dramatically. Even if you want silence, he is not the reason for it. It doesn't make any sense that bumpers or shock absorbers are required equipment. I wouldn't put my trust in THIS share if I were you.

Not perfect quality, there is a small defect.

I stood in the external HDD Transcend, while connecting to the computer, hit a little. It didn’t start anymore - when connected, it made 20 thin squeaks and did not even try to start. After re-reading a bunch of forums, only 1 repair option was found - in Soviet style. Suddenly it helped! It was imprinted into linoleum from a height of 20 cm with the addition of initial acceleration and good parting words. Wound up like a nice little, SMART said that everything is fine, all indicators are…

Pros
  • Quiet, data transfer speed 27-30MB/sec. (according to win7)
Cons
  • It heats up quite intensely compared to a Hitachi laptop at 7200 rpm .

Money down the drain, poor quality product.

brought an external hard transcend ts500gsj25d2-w, they said he died a week after the purchase. When connected, it emits a few short beeps. Since the warranty card was not found, I had to open it. Inside was this hard Seagate-Samsung production. When connected directly via sata to the computer, it was also not defined even in the BIOS. On the advice of the unsubscriber, I hit the side of the hard drive (the HDD was in a silicone case) on the table with medium force, and it started working as if

Pros
  • not seen at work
Cons
  • died

A complete disaster, definitely did not pass the quality check!!!

I take it out of the laptop (I shoved the SSD in there), I look at SMART - it already shows that something is junk "calibration retry count = 25", well, I think it doesn’t happen, they didn’t work in the system manager - everyone is alive. After 4-5 hours of connecting to the bakery without load, even deleted the file system, it starts to squeak low-frequency (beeps and stops) - I look at "calibration retry count = 40", well, that's all - I refuse to install it. Threat worked 140 days, SMART…

Pros
  • Medium cold - gave out 29 °, when another old Seagate 500gb gives out 33 ° at room temperature 22 °
Cons
  • Noisy? yes, you put your hand on it - it vibrates so much that even my older seagates in the system unit do not allow themselves.

Its impossible to use it, dont waste your money.

Of the 15 samsas that I had to deal with over the past year (people usually take what is cheaper), the last one died today. I look at him now and think where did he overwork so much? Three months in external disk mode (included with the Buffolo MiniStation Extreme, date of purchase - March 2022) the main load is the storage of non-critical data (!) And their occasional ating quality. I read rave reviews and wonder where you can find sams that will work for more than 1.5-2 years, who writes…

Pros
  • Not funny .
Cons
  • Not a supporter of lotteries, but with this product it’s no different. It heats up very noticeably. Quiet work is also not about him, do you want silence? bumpers or shock absorbers are a must have, the list goes on, but it makes no sense. If you want to entrust your data to THIS share, well, no, thank you.

Dissatisfied with this product, bad to use.

I stood in the Dell n5110 laptop, was used extremely carefully, worked for about 2 years, after which the next day, when turned on, clicking began. The clicks lasted for about a week, after which the laptop did not turn on the first time, the system wrote that it was not connected, and the BIOS did not see it. The problem was solved by turning off the laptop from the network and turning it back on. However, a month later the screw refused to turn on at all. Signs: clicks (to infinity). After…

Pros
  • Very quiet - at minimum and balanced performance, good read/write speed
Cons
  • At high performance, it starts to squeak, but not loudly, if you find fault with it, it can be attributed to a minus

Upset and disappointed, product is very bad!

I purchased an HP 630 laptop equipped with this hard drive. From the very beginning, windows loaded for about 5 minutes. After six months of using SMART, the indicators show a warning on calibration retry count, current pending sector . Visually, windows takes about 15 minutes to load, sometimes the disk blocks IO and the whole system "freezes" for a couple of minutes. Bad winchester, however, like all Seagate products

Pros
  • Normal laptop hard drive
Cons
  • Started to fail after 6 months of use

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overall good, but I expected more, there are disadvantages.

Was in a Samsung laptop. After 2 years, suddenly, without any external influence, the laptop stopped starting - it spins win7 petals on the splash screen and nothing else happens. Parsing and sticking through the sata directly into the "big" computer also did not bring any result - the disk was not detected in the system. But there was a plus - it was seen by the BIOS. In general, by connecting it via USB, through an adapter, using Acronis and tambourines, I saved data from disk D, then…

Pros
  • Lived for two years!
Cons
  • A little. 2 and a half inches :)
