Review on Shock-Resistant Transcend StoreJet 25M3 USB 3.1 Slim Portable Hard Drive with 500GB Capacity by Ha Joon Joon

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

Low speed and why! Bought 3 pieces, for the organization of backup storage. I installed all 3 disks on different machines, deployed data copying through TranscendElite (very convenient firmware, even such a kettle as I figured out). The task before the disks was the following, to make backup copies of data (without compression or archiving, just copies) every day after 20:00. Each disk accounted for about 180-200 gigabytes of data (no photos, and no heavy large files) So, the data did not have time to be copied overnight, and the "morning employees" started working with the data, and therefore copying part of the data was already not relevant. The manufacturer should think about the data transfer rate, with such large amounts of hard disk. It's like putting an Oka engine on a Hemmer.

Pros
  • Impact resistant. Convenient built-in software.
Cons
  • Low data write speed.
