I had it for 2 years without any problems! It fell once from a small distance and I lost 500gb.... Unfortunately, I recommend getting something more durable!
I have had it for years and it works great. However, you should be careful not to hit it and not to scratch it... a good purchase for typical needs!
Used on a computer as a secondary drive and on a console for extra games, I have had it for 3 years and in the last year it has been failing, disconnects by itself, while it was working it was just okay.
It worked 7-8 times on Mac. On the 9th time, the system didn't recognize it. I will try it on Windows as well. It took a long time for the computer to read it, the transfer of files was quite fast but what good is it if it goes off? It's a shame the money for something supposedly quality.
One day, out of nowhere, it asked for a format and I could never recover the files. One day it worked and the next it died.
Several years of use with many file transfers and many TB of material, absolutely no problems and no disconnections, so I highly recommend it!
Fast as it can be and reliable, has not had the slightest problem, recognized immediately on many devices and does not freeze at all
I do not recommend it!!!
(I have had it for 2 years) and I can say that it is durable... but, it is PROBLEMATIC!!!
- It constantly disconnects when left unused for a while! (like putting the phone to sleep)
- Data transfer is simply TERRIBLE!!!
(You cannot do ANYTHING else in the background until the disk finishes its task... because ALL APPLICATIONS FREEZE!!!)
- The ONLY POSITIVE thing is that I have not lost ANYTHING from the backups I have been doing for so many years!!!
Although slow... it is DURABLE!!!
Within a year, it broke down and I lost all the files inside. I sent it for repair to the store where I bought it, but they did not return it to me
I have two, as a backup for my system files. After 2-3 years of operation, they are okay in all aspects. They are worth their money, I would say.
Purchased for €44, reliable, it is the second one I ordered, the previous one is bought (previous model) since 2016 and it hasn't had any issues. I recommend it for its value.
I bought this hard drive at the end of 2022 and today, 9 months later and after it has filled about half, it is essentially useless to me. The reason is that writing large files like a movie is painfully slow, and when we say slow, we mean speeds below 1 MB/sec. Searching a bit on the Internet, I had no difficulty finding the cause, which is likely a design flaw in combination with the SMR technology that this cheap drive obviously uses... see here: https://goughlui.com/2019/11/24/review-toshiba-canvio-basics-4tb-usb-3-0-external-hard-drive-dtb440/
It's a shame for the 70-something euros I paid and a shame for all the comments here praising it, obviously based on very simplistic usage scenarios..
I bought the 2TB capacity disk on March 27th. By mid-July, the disk was completely finished. It started showing problems in June, and after a month, the disk had 400+ bad sectors, resulting in me losing 1.1TB of my work. Spend double the money and go for a Samsung SSD T5/T7 instead. Stay away from HDDs!
Very easy to use and I use it for various games on the computer. It connects via USB without any installation and is ready to use.
I have been using it for almost half a year as an external hard drive for my jailbroken PS4 and it hasn't had any problems at all. Quiet and fast!
Due to my profession as a sailor and the need for an external hard drive, I chose to purchase this product. However, while I believed I made a good purchase, after a short period of time, it was discovered that the hard drive started making the characteristic sound of "click" or otherwise known as the "click of death". Additionally, the fact that it is the same HDD makes it very vulnerable to falls or damage due to its operating method (with heads). In my case, the result was losing all of my files completely without any chance of recovery at sea. Since then, I have purchased an SSD (Samsung) where I would recommend it to anyone in need of a hard drive because they are both sturdy and fast, and due to their technology, they are up to 10 times more durable than an HDD.
1TB and enough. It does the job I want. Its speed is not great. It's a regular disk that stores files for you. And it's exactly what I want, mainly for work and personal files (maybe some videos too).
Purchased on October 22nd, gave up on July 12th of the following year.
Minimum use on laptop and mediabox, suddenly stopped being recognized and the characteristic sound *click* was heard.
Never again!
The disk is perfect. Format it for the first time in NTFS to handle large files. I have no problems. I recently bought a third one, all of them are 4TB. The first one was purchased 4 years ago and I have no issues. Some people judge the disk based on file transfer. It's not the disk's fault. It could be an old computer or slow/defective USB ports. If you're interested, buy it. It's reliable and at a very good price.
Blackout! After a few hours, it is no longer recognized by any computer. I don't know if I stumbled upon a problematic piece, but this one is garbage. Don't buy it.
I got the 2TB one a month ago and hooked it up to the series s... It runs games from ONE and 360 smoothly and without any problems, with fast copying speed, quiet operation, good construction, and sleek appearance. Everything is good so far, and if anything changes, I'll come back.
This is the 4th one I have purchased due to its quality in relation to price, durability, and speed.
The review concerns the 2T disk. I use it as an extra storage space for PS4 games. It connects easily to the console and is perfect for the job I need it for. I am very satisfied with my choice.
I can transfer files from my camera or other media (USB etc.) to the disk, but often the files do not appear when I connect it to my laptop. I also frequently receive a message to repair the disk unit. In general, the disk is not stable. I don't trust it. I will use it for backup and buy something better.
In my possession for at least 3 years. It has fallen several times from a significant height without breaking. It is used as a back-up storage.
There is nothing negative on the disk. It is relatively fast and makes almost no sound. In fact, one day it accidentally fell off my desk, but it still works fine.
For what I wanted him for, to load him with documents, photos and videos, he's great. I have him as a permanent second hard drive connected to a USB port. He doesn't take up any space, I secured him with double-sided tape on the side wall of my desktop.
Great choice that has never disappointed me, I have 4 of these disks that I use for backup and in the 2 years that I have had them, I haven't had any problems. Their health doesn't seem to be deteriorating for now and their performance is at satisfactory levels with normal USB 3 speeds.
I had bought a 2 tb two years ago, and now I bought another one also 2 tb. It is very lightweight, connects to the PC immediately, and is quite small in size, but its speed is moderate (which I knew and don't care about). Its price is around €60, which is too expensive for 2 tb!
Excellent quality from Toshiba in a timeless disk that simply changes names every few years and data transfer speed! There's nothing else to say, you just enjoy using it!
