Startech 7-port Industrial USB 3.0 Hub with ESD Protection

Siparişten önce kargo şirketi ve Amazon Türkiye'den yaptığım ilk alışveriş olması sebebiyle şüphelerim vardı, fakat sonuç; hızlı kargo, sorunsuz ürün. Ilk 2 günde 1,5 tb veri attım, 100mb/sn nin altına düşmedi. Aşırı sesli değil. Bilgisayar da direkt tanıdı. Alışverişten memnunum, tavsiye ederim.

OK so I have seen other reviews about failures etc. but hey....things fail...that's why we back up in the first place isn't it (and I never trust just one backup for precious files)?? Anyway, I already have two 2TB portable Seagate expansion drives for my movie and TV collection, and for my backups. However, an ever increasing movie and TV collection meant I needed even more capacity. I decided on this one purely because of the price point, the capacity, and the fact it was a Seagate! Straight out of the box it feels like quality. It is nicely heavy and comes with a decent length Mains adaptor and USB 3.0 cable (if you are new to USB 3.0 be aware that a normal USB cable does not have the same fitting at the equipment end as a USB 3.0 cable). So what did I do? I put the drive on my desk behind my PC. I connected the drive via the USB cable to a vacant USB3.0 port (the blue ones) on the back of my PC (I would say NEVER plug a backup HDD in to a HUB....always use a dedicated direct socket). And I plugged it in. Within a couple of seconds a window popped up showing that the drive is active. And that's it really! I leave it plugged into the mains since it automatically goes to sleep with the PC. Noise? well, I happen to like hearing that positive little whirring sound that lets you know something is happening when I copy a file to a backup (at other times it is, as far as I can tell, silent....or at least quieter than the whisper of my PC fan). If you have the hearing of a Fenec Fox and get annoyed by the sound of a cockroach running across a carpet 10 feet away then maybe this drive is too noisy....! It is backwards compatible to USB 2.0 if you need it to connect via that method but bear in mind that USB 3.0 is some large number of times faster than USB 2.0! Transfer times?? Well, as we all know, different file types take different times to copy and big files copy at a much faster rate than lots of small files. I have seen 130MBps during copying a large archive of video files from my PC (i5 processor) to it, but copying my custom icons file (yeah I am a movie geek and the folder icons just have to portray the movies they contain ;-)) of hundreds of files less than 1MB each managed only around 20MBps. I don't know what else to tell you really.... I will watch out for questions and try to answer if I can. I will say that I paid 74 quid for this and the same drive was 119 elsewhere online! Yeah it could fail next week...or never...but no backup is perfect which is why you should have at least 2 backups of all of your precious files as well as your in-use version on your PC.....don't be like me and learn the hard way by losing 2 years worth of irreplaceable family pictures and videos!!!!

Mis impresiones hasta ahora: - Los materiales son de calidad, buena estética. - Se calienta muy poco. - El medidor de consumo eléctrico me da valores entre 4w y 7w, dependiendo de la carga que tenga en cada momento. 0w en reposo. - No es ruidoso, lo tengo a un par de metros del ordenador y creo que no lo he escuchado nunca. - Lo tengo encendido 24/7 desde hace más de una semana. Está conectado a una Banana Pro (tipo Raspberry), funcionando como servidor de ficheros y cliente torrent (rtorrent). De momento todo bien, pero como con cualquier disco duro, a la larga se verá si fue buena inversión. Si da algún tipo de problemas actualizaré la opinión. Lo recomiendo.

Questo hard disk è un ottimo dispositivo dotato di grande capacità anche se è ormai facile trovare anche dimensioni maggiori (recentemente ho acquistato questo da 4TB: https://amzn.to/3mFL1L5) Funziona bene e il trasferimento dati è veloce seppur si tratti di un disco tradizionale e non SSD. Consiglio questo prodotto come sistema di backup su cui programmare un archiviazione quotidiana per mettere al sicuro i proprio dati.

In the situation that i use this (always plugged in to my xbox one as an external hard drive rather than constantly being moved as a portable hard drive) this has been an excellent storage device that was very easy to set up and has never given me any problems. *Warning* My PERSONAL opinion upon inspecting the sockets and design of this product is that they are prone to wearing out and breaking very quickly if the device is plugged and unplugged alot (ie if it's being used as a portable HDD rather than a permanent expansion) so be forewarned that it's really not suited to the role of "portable" **EDIT** it's now 2022 and i've been using the same external drive daily since 2015 , the reason for the edit is that i think it's finally dying as i've had a couple of disk write errors and several files lost due to corruption. Literally could not have asked more from this equipment and i'll be looking to get whatever the current version is to continue on my external HDD needs. You have my sympathies if you've had a bad experience with this line of external/portable HDDs but in my experience the reliability has been top notch
