Review on 8TB Seagate Backup Plus Hub Desktop Hard Drive with Data Recovery Services by Jihu Gim ᠌
The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.
The disks are pulled out of the box and inserted into the system unit in 4 pieces, with additional cooling of each quad from a 12cm fan. They are assembled into a single RAID6 array with a useful volume of 43.6 TB using the Adaptec ASR-51245 controller and work 24/7 without much load. The temperature in this mode is 30-34 degrees.
- Immediately, I note that the use is not typical. When buying, only the lowest price per terabyte was taken into account. For some reason, in the portable version, the price of the same disk is lower than in the regular desktop version. However, it is not difficult to bring to the desktop version. Inside the box is a regular Seagate ST8000DM004 SATA drive from the Seagate Compute series. (do not confuse with ST8000DM0004), and earlier versions had ST8000AS0002 of the Seagate Archive series. The only disadvantage of this transformation is the loss of warranty, since it will obviously not work to carefully disassemble the black box without damaging the latches.
- 1) Perhaps - reliability. For six months of work, the failure of one disk out of 8 purchased. That I didn’t understand it, I bought and dismantled another one to replace it. The rest work flawlessly. (Running time is about 6800 hours.) 2) The speed of work with random access and copying a bunch of small files is clearly slow. Creating an array of 8 disks took about 2 days.
