Review on πŸ’Ύ ikasus 8TB Portable External Hard Drive - USB 3.0, Easy-to-Carry Blue HDD for PC Laptops, Desktops, and Smart Phones by Bill Dahl

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Minimal functionality

Technically it's only 8TB as it's a set of 4 drives of 1.9TB each which is almost 8TB. The bandwidth is terrible, when it worked I was averaging about 7MB per second so he figured it would take 12 hours to transfer 200 gigabytes of data. Unfortunately, the transfer never completed, about every half hour the process got interrupted for unknown reasons and I had to either re-queue the file or start over. I just gave up on the backup after trying two days in a row. Although the price is tempting, you really do get what you pay for and not worth the hassle.

Pros
  • Easy to carry. This portable hard drive is lightweight and ultra-thin. Its size is only 118mm x 80mm, which is convenient to carry and easy to put in your pocket. Anti-vibration core, durable. Safe and reliable.
Cons
  • Good but not great
