Review on πŸ”Œ Seagate Expansion 3TB Portable USB 3.0 External Hard Drive (STEA3000400) in Black by Makoto Oonishi ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

For a long time I chose from a bunch of models from different manufacturers based on reviews of reliability and speed, and finally I came to this solid hard drive! Reliability of course, only time will tell! HDD Seagate Expansion Portable 1TB Black STEA1000400

Pros
  • 1) The disk is very light, the positive side of this solution can be appreciated when it is often necessary to transfer information precisely through a physical medium, i. E. carrying it with you in your pocket is much more convenient and looks better. 2) Well, in terms of speed, I can say for sure that I was not mistaken with the choice! On USB 3.0, stable high speed for writing and reading from a disk of one large file and reading and writing a folder with small files (screenshots are attached). If you connect to USB 2.0, then the speed will naturally be much less, this is logical, so do not confuse!
Cons
  • 1) Due to the fact that the disc is light, it rolls off inclined surfaces more easily due to its low weight. 2) The plastic feels very thin and will scratch easily.

For movies or archiving as a mirror, it is quite suitable.

Got pros: Regular HDD. If I'm not mistaken, then you can insert it into the system when removing the plastic case. Its cons: As long as everything suits.

I saw such discs a couple of years ago, probably. Why is there only 5 TB in this form factor?

Little experience yet, but first impressions are great. Good model for a reasonable price.

Perhaps just a marriage caught, now in the process of replacing this disk.
