Review on πŸ’Ύ Toshiba Canvio Advance 1TB Black USB 3.0 Portable External Hard Drive - HDTC910XK3AA by Samik Drusky

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hard drive in good condition -- beware of cable damage

The hard drive itself works as advertised BUT the cable broke after 9 months and got me thinking that the whole hard drive is bad. I plugged in the drive and the light came on and I could feel it spinning, but it never installed on my computers (OS X, Linux, and Windows). I thought it was a defective drive and was very dismayed at the warranty issues other people were having. Luckily I had a different cable and decided to try it and it worked! If you have problems with the drive, try a different cable before throwing it in the trash like I almost did!

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Long time
