Hard Drive External Usb 2.0

[2 x 4 TB HDDs] I was outgrowing my 1 TB external single drives, and it was about time to separate my work projects from my personal. The item arrived quickly, and sported the lovely new electronic smell. Install was a breeze; as I don't have the need for RAID at the moment, I converted the drives quickly to be independent of each other, with one drive making multiple backups of the other. My system doesn't support USB 3.0, so I can't comment on the speed. But I can say USB 2.0 speeds are similar to other external drives, averaging around 20-25 MB/sec, according to the disc tests I ran. 4 months later the drive bay still runs like a charm. It is very quiet, located about 4 feet away from ear shot, and can only be heard when booting up the desktop as the drives spin up. This won't win you any awards for speed if you're doing heavy video processing. For now, it serves my purpose as a drive for my photography business, but I fear as the cameras keep increasing in MP sizes, I may need to update the desktop to either USB 3.0 or something similar, as USB 2.0 is starting to show its age (rendering full size previews of thousands of images can take a long time)!

[0.005 lb] I use this adapter to connect an external hard drive to my Samsung Galaxy Tab S. Tablets only have mini usb ports. To use an external or any other device that uses a usb port, you'll need this adaptor. I also recommend getting an adapter that has a mini USB port on the adapter so you can keep your tablet charging while you use it with the USB device.

[1x 2.5" SATA] I ripped an old 1TB hard drive out of an old USB 2.0 enclosure. It was easy to install it into this enclosure. It used small phillips screws. Having a set of small screwdrivers made it a simple installation.

[7 x 4.95 x 1"] Have used this hard drive just a couple times to back up two (USB 2.0) family laptops. So far, so good. The drive is amazingly compact, USB powered, extremely quiet and cool-running. USB 3.0 capability will come in handy when I replace daughter's machine in the near future. If the drive proves reliable, I'm a happy camper.

[3.3 VDC] Fast external hard drive. Works well.

[6 TB] This is my third external hard drive, work great.

[Aluminum] This is the fifth WD Portable USB External Hard Drive I have purchased, which I use as a secondary backup for my photo library (primary backup is full size HDDs). All have performed flawlessly and provide a good storage capacity at a very reasonable price. Highly Recommended.
