Toshiba MQ01ABD100 1TB 2.5" Internal Hard Drive Review

Native Dell Inspiron 5558 laptop screw that comes with it. I have two laptops - with black and red cases. I mostly use black. For a black laptop, the screw worked quite tolerably from January 2, 2022, but by March 2022 it began to slow down when loading, and when the laptop was turned off, it hung up and the laptop remained in that position. On 03/25/2022, a 128 GB SSD under the OS was installed in its place, and the HDD became storage in a skid in place of the CD drive! The laptop just took…

I bought a laptop in the configuration with this hard drive, I didn’t use it so often, I handled it carefully. After 2 years, one fine day, Windows simply did not start, it also refused to recover. He worked over 3300 hours, and it feels like he was raped here. In the process of vain attempts to save native Windows, be careful with such disks

My genuine experience with it.Has some pros: Recording speed at the time of the first days, price Got cons: Reliability, noisier than other hard drives but not much

This fiend stood in a dell vostro 3490 laptop. My God, I didn’t know that a laptop on an i5 10210 could slow down and start up for a long time. If you want to buy this disk, think a hundred times (especially for the system), do you need it? It's better to pay a little more and get something less hacky than that . Take care of your nerves.

Thiscomment is for another disc - MK6476GSX, however, I think that thecomment should be voiced in modern products: "Two identical screws were bought at the beginning of 2022. One was installed in a laptop instead of 250GB. The second,completely new, is still in the bag :), although it was also bought to replace 320GB in anetbook. For 5.5 years of work, and this, according to SMART data, 18827 hours, there were no problems. Recently, when testing the surface, I saw four bad sectors that…

A disc with moderate capabilities is generally adequate for use in a laptop with external cooling or as an external hard drive, and if you don't play games or deal with graphics, it's not awful at all. 19947 hours of labor, daily use CristalDiskInfo displays the following alert in yellow: Replacement sectors are expanding, but Victoria could find only 18 green and 18 red sectors. If one of them dies, I'll post it.

was outfitted with a PS4 Pro, however after working for less than a year, PS started acting strangely slow. My database restoration effort was unsuccessful. The startup was then repeated twice; this did not help and really slowed down the process. The root of the issue is that I put the curling iron to sleep at night (also while it was in use, the screen frequently hung, and I had to wait 10 to 15 seconds for everything to hang), and when I go to get it in the morning, it is off, won't turn on…

Let's start with the fact that after turning on the laptop, you can continue about your business for another 5 minutes while it "comes to its senses." It's hard to picture the last 2 years of laptop use without using high-flown, multi-level swear words. After the laptop "went down" two days ago, the service center was kind enough to return it to me (approximately 90% of the disk was destroyed, but most of the data was retained). I agree with the other authors that if you find this HDD in a…

Capacious and suitable size HDD (will not overheat). Advanced format, in my opinion, greatly reduces the speed of writing and reading. Best used without AF technology. Ideally ssd instead of hdd. By the way, this disk has been working in a macbook for 2-3 years, there are no complaints. They say that Toshiba spins the longest and does not break. The old one (native toshiba on 250Gb) has been working flawlessly for 5 years.

I got this miracle as part of an inexpensive laptop from Acer, when I bought it, I understood that not the best components were used to reduce the price, but I definitely did not expect this. The laptop was bought to work with documents, drawings and other educational interests, the performance on paper was enough for these tasks, but in reality the incredibly wooden hard drive slowed down the entire system. With rare use, this was tolerable, but after a few days of constant work, it became…

I was checking the drive I received today from a third party Storage Dealz when I noticed that the drive that I received, was manufactured in November 2014. , There is a March 2019 date disc in the product listing. I was expecting some variation but not a five year difference. I was running the open source Crystaldiskinfo utility and a few things didn't match. The utility reported that the drive is a SATA-3, not SATA-6 as listed in the product listing. Toshiba's warranty page does not have a…

I installed this on my MacBook because my hard drive was damaged. I had an external backup drive. First off, it was an easy install and it worked great! I failed by backing up directly to it and it locked the drive with no OS just my backup. So I cleaned my external drive and installed the operating system on it and then backed up the system. So my advice is to install the operating system before restoring from a backup.

Need a cheap but quality branded 2.5" 1TB drive (Toshiba) to breathe new life into an old laptop and convert it to an Ubuntu Linux 18.04 laptop LTS. The drive arrived on time and worked as expected. Like an old SATA 3Gb/s drive, it's not the fastest, but Toshiba made a lot of this model and they're used in a lot of older laptops. So I thought the technique was reliable. I would buy from this seller again.

This hard drive works great in my MacBook Pro. While most people crave SSDs, I need high-capacity SATA drives, and this 1TB 2.5" HDD fits the bill (it's a true 1TB, 999.86GB drive usable space AFTER formatting). gave me 470GB of space and other 1TB drives that gave me 975GB or less of space). part of the operation. (2) I rebooted firewire as the boot drive to make sure it was bootable - and indeed it is. (3) I turned off the MacBook Pro, unscrewed the bottom screws (a few minutes), and when the

I bought 3 of these because of the amazing price. However, these are very used drives with scratched cases and stickers. These drives also have thousands of hours of operation as evidenced by their SMART self-test. By carefully examining the labels they made in 2013, 2014 and 2015. I checked their serial numbers on Toshiba's website and their warranty expired many years ago. A testament to Toshiba's quality is that there were no reallocated sectors or other SMART indicators on these drives…

Came like new boxed and looked good. Speed is good initially, but sometimes I get *very* *very* poor performance when copying files, indicating disk surface issues or something. I haven't looked into the diagnosis yet, but given what other users are reporting about their surface scans, I wouldn't be surprised if there were any issues due to age/previous use. I'm using in an isolated system with no virus scan or anything like that. and when I copy large files, they start up fast, but then the…

Terrible product. After installing a hard drive in my MacBook Pro in mid-2012, I was unable to download the latest operating system software that I needed to download all of my educational software. After Googling for several hours trying to download the correct software I was able to get it to the Apple Store. The technician ran a test on the computer and found the hard drive had failed so I couldn't download anything! Probably a new hard drive! It's worth spending a few extra dollars to get a

My computer was having trouble starting up because troubleshooting efforts said the HARD DRIVE was not working. Bought this exact replacement for my Inspiron 5755 laptop. Arrived quickly, well packaged. I will say that you MUST format the drive during installation, this is done by booting your operating system. I downloaded mine from the internet using my wife's computer on a USB drive. Go to youtube This is an endless information base. You'll need a Torx T-6 screwdriver, but again go to…

I advise you to check it in advance with programs like Victoria or Crystal. Because I caught myself late. And I had to carry it to the service to restore the photo.

Two of these lie One stood on a laptop, burned down by itself. The service said that the heads were stuck and actually fell down right there. The second one was external, hung on the cord, the result was sticking of the magnetic heads. Heads immediately fell down as in the first case. In both cases, the service said a round sum to restore the information and therefore all the information was gone. After that case: I do not recommend buying Toshiba. Store important data separately and in…
