Good drive, but noisy

Reviewed in Canada on January 28, 2022

These drives are loud. Decent price/size/performance ratio. But you'll know when data is being written to it. I have 3 of them to replace old Seagate 3TB drives, which I never heard spinning up/seeking. I can't find a tool on Toshiba's website to adjust acoustic levels, or they make it incredibly hard to find.

Funciona bem até o momento, mas está fazendo uns barulhos de arranhões muito estranhos...

No Crystal Disk diz que está saudável.

Não sei o que fazer.. esse som de arranhões pode ter começado por causa de dano físico. Provavelmente vou ter que devolver o produto.

Reliable in 4-Months, But Painfully Slow

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2022

Verified Purchase

I bought this external HDD to back up files while transitioning from one cloud provider to another. It took me MONTHS to get all my cloud data onto this HDD because it copies so very, very, very slowly. Worse, now that I'm using it for local storage, it's so slow to get files onto it that often I just don't bother with home backups, defeating the purpose of the extra precaution. Even with the decent specs relative to many other HDD's out there, this HDD is impractical. I won't buy another HDD. Cloud storage and super-fast SSD's from now on. I'm disappointed that over the eons since I was in school, file transfers can still be so slow they're impractical to work with.

It simply disappears from BIOS

Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2022

The first one I used as the system drive - and half the time the BIOS would not even see the drive. Returned it for another and this time I used it as a secondary drive. Same issue. Works well when the BIOS sees it, but I can boot up to my primary drive now and at some point during the day there is a chance it will simply not be there any longer. I can reboot and it may or may not return. It is not overheating. I can run a chkdsk with no errors. I can plug it into a SATA to USB adapter and the drive will appear, hook it back up to a SATA port and it may or may not show up in BIOS. Something is very wrong here to get two with identical issues. Plugged into a Dell Optiplex 9020 tower.

A very noisy HDD

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2021

Verified Purchase

I bought this drive as a secondary drive for my computer. My old HDD died and I had no idea how quiet it was compared to this drive.

I will buy another brand and transfer everything over and not buy this brand again. This is a fatal flaw with that level of noise.

Back to WD for me.

I bought it to be my replacement gaming HDD, Doesn't seem to be any better than what I'm using. Back to the drawing board.
