    Great product, a pleasure to use.

    I changed the windows power plan and accidentally turned off the HDD when idle. As a result, a month later the disk began to slow down, in CrystalDiskInfo I saw 50 reassigned sectors, after an hour 187 reassigned sectors, sounded the alarm, immediately disconnected the disk from the computer and started looking for a replacement, there were 3 options seagate, WD, toshiba, the choice was difficult, how to look a needle in a haystack, there were no adequate reviews on , seagate disappeared due to

    Pros
    • When the previous disk Toshiba DT01ACA200 ((aka Hitachi HDS723020BLE640) aka under the new name Toshiba HDWD120URZAS)) started to crumble, I started cloning with Acronis to a new disk, it lasted 30 hours and the error that the sector could not be read never appeared. Ideal as a second third drive in a system for bulk data storage, good value for money/capacity. Relatively quiet as a second drive in a system. The floor model under the previous name worked for 6 years.
    Cons
    • the disk does not like power off when idle. Turns on for a long time.

    The average product, you can find a better one.

    Doubtful disk - does not inspire confidence, with crunches during operation, and with delays when accessing it. It is scary to store valuable data on it. Different pros: I liked the price and the number of gigabytes in this hard drive, but I won't say anything about the quality. Some cons: Firstly, it is noisy, from the very first days some cracklings began during reading, and secondly, it is very slow, now the disk is 60% busy and when you just want to surf through the folders, not to mention…

    Best price for this product, will buy more!

    My WD Green 2tb suddenly fell down (it was bought in 2022) and in order to save the photos over the past 9 years I took this HDD as a replacement, while transferring photos (about 1 TB) it remained cold and absolutely silent. So far I'm completely satisfied :)

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Poor quality item, not what it needs.

    The results of today's surface test by Victoria. After half an hour, the disk was no longer recognized by any system. Definitely do not recommend buying.

    Pros
    • No benefits
    Cons
    • Died after 2 months of work (was purchased on 02/23/2022). At first, the mechanics began to blunt: the spindle could suddenly stop and then start working, then the bads fell down. I tried to connect to another PC, with other loops, with another PSU - the mechanics continued to shamelessly blunt.

    Great value for money, one of the best offers.

    There are no questions about the disk, it was lucky that it was delivered whole. The packaging at the time of delivery was, to put it mildly, unreliable - a thin bag with a bubble wrap and there was just a disc in it. Wish for the layout - send in boxes!

    Pros
    • the disk is good, it works quietly, writing and reading is quite fast
    Cons
    • amazon strangely delivers hard drives (see photo)

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    I was surprised by the quality for the price.

    Disc production date: November 2022. Purchased on 05/03/2022. I liked the price: 2tb for 4150r. If there are problems with the disk, I will supplement the review)

    Pros
    • Quiet Satisfied with speed Price
    Cons
    • Haven't revealed yet

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

    Stickers for Cosmonautics Day were added to the box as a bonus, my daughter was delighted to find them when unpacking. Special thanks for this.

    Pros
    • The disk is working, there will be information on the resource later, but never better.
    Cons
    • No

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Terrible quality, wasted money.

    It suddenly fell down, 80% of the information could not be saved (it’s good that I made backups). The second of the P300 series, the previous Toshiba HDWD120EZSTA model, was showered with bad blocks three years after purchase, this one lasted a little longer. The sad statistics of the P300 series.

    Pros
    • Have worked.
    Cons
    • Stopped working, Victoria did not help.

    Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

    I don't understand people who install discs in carriages without rubber pads and complain about the sound. I'm glad I got a good CD.

    Pros
    • When choosing, I relied on the reliability and CMR recording technology (I don’t know if the manufacturer is lying on the official site). I took a boxless version, anyway, YaMarket will pack everything well (HDWD120UZSVA date 23NOV2022). Nice price with coupon. By disk: I did a full test in Victoria and checked the speeds in CDM from under Windows on a Samsung 860 EVO SSD (it seems to matter) (cluster size 64 and 128 KB, respectively, in the order of the photo). Everything suits me, there are no sounds. All sectors are in order, no bad blocks were found.
    Cons
    • I didn’t notice, if anything comes up in the process of using it, I’ll definitely write.

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Disgusting quality, impossible to use.

    Bad store! Yaelex-Market admitted the fact of poor packaging, which led to the loss of the guarantee of the goods, as a compensation for the issue of a bonus code for 500, when buying more than 501, without delivery costs. Clowns!

    Pros
    • Price. Delivery speed.
    Cons
    • The disks in the box lay one on one, without the necessary packaging to protect against damage, as a result, the antistatic packages were torn in places, and small scratches appeared on the surfaces of the disk cases. Those. disks, during transportation fought one against the other!

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

    Normal inexpensive hdd, wound up the first time without any problems, I hope that it will last at least 2-3 years it would be better to provide better packaging for transportation, as a blow or fall can easily damage

    Pros
    • Price
    Cons
    • A bit noisy

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

    Specifically, my copy is reliable. There are no complaints at work. In a quiet room, even inside a deepcool icedisk 100, you can hear it a little. In this line, 2-3TB are the noisiest even in terms of performance characteristics, 27 dB. CMR fee.

    Pros
    • CMR;
    Cons
    • Noisy;

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Good value for money, I recommend it.

    Reliability is in question. If it does not crumble in half a year, then it's good. I don't recommend keeping anything important. It's very easy to lose everything at once.

    Pros
    • - Price at the time of purchase. 2TB for 3700 never seen. - Quiet. But it's not yet scored - Speed ​​is good 200mb/s read and write - No bad sectors. In Victoria, only 5 came out orange, some green and gray, the rest are white. Full run (I'm sick of waiting)
    Cons
    • Until I discovered

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

    Since I did not make any attempts to gauge the velocity, I have nothing to contribute to the discussion on this topic. I put it in the network attached storage device (NAS) as the primary drive, and I considered getting a second one for increased dependability so that I could set up a RAID. However, everything appears to be operating OK at this point, and there is no indication that another disk will be purchased. My use case involves the drive being active all the time, continuously streaming…

    Pros
    • pricing, production capacity
    Cons
    • didn't notice

    Affordable and voluminous model. Nothing special to say, everything works. As they say, set and forget. I don’t hear any noise at all, most likely it interrupts the processor cooling cooler (I use the server one). Reading and writing speed correspond to the declared characteristics. I use it on my computer as storage. Turned on around the clock, because. I also use it as a media server. If you turn on one 4k movie on 5 TVs at once, no brakes are detected during production. I am satisfied with…

    Pros
    • Price quality.
    Cons
    • That which is not an SSD.
