    • Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Rotational Speed: 5400 revolutions per minute (The rate at which the hard drive spins its platters. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the drive can read and write data.)

Q: i would like to order this item how do i order it?

A: I ordered this directly from a Best Buy store. I paid at that time and it was delivered to my home.

Q: The description says speeds upto 510 MB/s but in the specs the hard drive speed is mentioned as max 130 MB/s. What is the correct transfer speed with thunderbolt 3?

A: Dose your divic support usb 3? Because this speed shows whit the usb 3. If it is not it will be lower than standard . Also do you upload or download data.

Q: Will it supports standard USB3 ?

A: Read the Spec VERY Carefully. Interfaces - Thunderbolt / USB 3.1 / USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 compatible using...adapter. Interface Transfer Rates: Thunderbolt: 10 Gb/s ; USB 3.1: up to 10 Gb/s. (Info from my purchased item box from Best Buy)

Q: On the description it states its a solid state drive but the model number does not correspond to a solid state. Is it?

A: I say yes because it seems to match the 2 TB solid state drive that I got couple years earlier only the new one is bigger.
