Extremely poor quality, had to send back TWO in a row.

Extremely poor quality hard drives with bad sectors and unformattable CORRECTLY from the factory. Two in a row unformatted, so unreliable that even AMAZON refuses to back up these drives. In the end, I had to choose a more reliable brand than Toshiba.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Repair

Responds slowly and then quickly after use.

As the title says, you're going to access this drive and it's slow to respond, like waking it from sleep. A few very noticeable seconds. Then when it's used, it's pretty fast for a hard drive. Used as an additional drive in a new system (AMD 5900x, B550 MB, etc. etc.).

Pros
  • Looking forward to it
Cons
  • Reliability

It's not what it used to be

I've bought a lot of Toshiba drives in the past and have had great luck with them. This was actually done to add a 4th drive to a RAID 5 array of the same series that is over 4 years old. This one lasted exactly 27 days and started having bad sectors and slowing down. Barely had time to use the drive. Luckily I have 30 days left on Revain. For the price, a faster, more reliable NAS and enterprise drives from WD and Seagate are better choices. When the old Toshiba units are gone I will replace…

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Only available in black

Good quiet storage drive

Good hard drive, works very well. The installed hard disk is divided into three segments. There were no problems with the installation, everything went well. It formatted fairly quickly for a large drive and was very quiet. I immediately set it to 75% backup used and there were no issues or errors. The drive is very quiet. And no vibrations or anything like that. I ran several checks and found no problems. I found the drive to be very fast compared to a similarly sized slower drive and the…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons

SMART Failure within a day.

It can be a bit overwhelming to look at all the hard drive options available. Versions SMR, CMR, 5400-7200 rpm, NAS and then levels within each type. When I narrowed it down to around 5 I started looking at the star ratings and this one was 4.4! However, I didn't respond to the reviews for the exact device I ordered (6TB / 256MB cache) which are downright terrible. Within 24 hours I had a SMART error popup on HWinfo. I was monitoring the CPU/GPU temps on a new build and scrolled down to verify…

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...
