Rpm Drives

"great price and fast and secure Hard drive. The drive worked with both Windows and Mac computers....Inside is a seagate barracuda 7200 rpm drive. Kind of what i was expecting but i thought i would review here so it would keep anyone else from guessing."

"Heat assisted tech for writing data which is not CMR.. specially for big data drives it still good but really wish they would usb 4 or thunderbolt 4 tech to get the speed from 7200 RPM.. hope they give 5 years warranty not just 1 or 3 if the drive is good enough....Actual capacity 18.19 TB free space (20,000,586,850,304 bytes). Fast speeds, Sequential 246 MB/s, 239 MB/s R/W, 7200 rpm. "

"Running a disk utility shows it to be 'only' 5400 rpm. I had sort of expected a higher rpm rate, but admit that I also like the quieter and less power hungry attributes of a slower spin rate. ...Quality Drive...Western Digital has always made quality hard drives and this one is no different."

"WD-Blue 2TB 2.5" Hard Drive...Used for PS4, Only 5400 rpm but works fine. Always liked Western Digital......5400 RPM is all they had in stock...Tried going in to buy a replacement hard drive for a laptop but they only had 5400 rpm in stock. "

"Great hard drive for ps4...Easy too install would have prefered getting the 7200 rpm but this 5400 rpm suits the ps4 fine....It is 7200 RPM Much faster than the 5600 RPM"

"I have not started using the drives yet but it was an easy and fast getting the drives from Best Buy....This replaced the original WD HDD that was in a G-Drive external storage unit. Thankfully, this WD Red is 7200 rpm versus the slower older 5200 rpm that originally was from the OEM. "

"fast and reliable drive...easy to use, and so very fast! I gought 2 of these and backed up every computer and device I own on them...Fast...I like that this usb drive is fast for a hard disk."

"Can't go wrong with IRONWOLF NAS drives...This is my 3rd IRONWOLF NAS drive and i will continue to rely on them for all of my future NAS drives...Great Drive for my NAS. I highly recommend Ironwolf drives over WD NAS drives because there is no games played with these over WD SMR Drives. "

"Good value hard drive...Only downside is the 5400 rpm....A little slow, but a great drive for the money!...With a spindle speed of only 5400 RPM, it's a bit slower than a 7200 RPM drive, but the price makes up for it! "

"Solid backup drive...Nice fast backup drive. Huge storage capacity to fully store backups for my two internal 10TB drives. ...Ok, i needed a large capacity drive to back up the work i do. I was happy to see the 20TB drive for the price that was not blowing up my budget. "

"Good hard drive at a great price. It's fast and quite at 5400 rpm and fast enough to notice no difference in performance from the 7200 rpm it replaced....WD are very good hard drives the 7200 rpm is pretty fast"

"Not the fastest drive around......Internally it seems to be a 5400 rpm hdd, so it's a bit slow, but it's decent value for the price....This is a good idea for expanding Xbox One X storage. It's just a 5400 RPM hard drive, but it does the trick for my Xbox!"

"Fast, High Quality Drive...I purchased two Seagate - Barracuda 2 TB (7200 RPM) drives for backing up data from my main workstation. ...Perfect 7200 rpm hard drive!...Performs exactly as advertised with the 7200 rpm. Using it to store recordings from a FIOS DVR and it's working perfectly!"

"Nice little hard drive. A bit smaller than earlier My Passport drives, even though it has a larger capacity. ...Good portable hard drive...It would be even better if disk speed was at 7200 RPM."

"I made a copy of the first drive onto the second drive. I update just added photos. ...Works fast!...Works fast! Faster than flash drives and still portable."

"Decent bulk-storage portable drive...A perfect drive would use USB C and have a 7200 RPM internal drive. ...This is a standard portable HDD. It is a 5400 RPM drive so that limits the data transfer speeds. "

"A bit slow for nowadays thought the capacity is the contemporary one. It's not the 7200 rpm certainly. Forget it. It's the 5700 rpm one(still not the fastest experienced in this class writing speed). ...Hot, Loud, and Fast. It may be a 7200 rpm drive....Some say that the WD80EDAZ inside this enclosure is actually spinning at 7200 rpm, which it might be since the sequential performance of this drive closely matches that of my Seagate Barracuda 7200 rpm. https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/ikk0rv/psa_multiple_wd_5400rpm_drives_are_actually/ On one hand this is WD and their screwed up, misleading marketing (See: SMR drives sold as CMR drives). "

"Good drive for basic storage...Works well so far but I can't say their longevity. They are 5400 rpm hard drive not 7200 rpm....My first 7200 rpm external drive. Much better performance than 5400 rpm."

"Hgst drive inside...Great 7200 rpm drive in this. Wish I could've bought another one...18TB Runs At 7200 RPM According To CrystalDiskInfo...This 18TB drive reports as running at 7200 RPM by CrystalDiskInfo and this pleases me. "

"I needed something fast in regards to transfer rate and storage capacity and this external hard drive is just super fast and affordable....Excellent external hard drives! Very fast and useful! Very fast and careful shipping! "

"Good Drive...Nice, fast little drive. Super lightweight as well!...Very fast drive...Very fast drive. I've bought several Seagate expansion drives and never had a problem with them."

"Seagate 1TB External Hard Drive...Fast - super easy, anyone could do it. Plug and Save!...Did the job. Copy is pretty fast. Also it’s slick"

"Love this hard drive!...Bought it to have as a backup in case my other hard drive goes out. So far so good. Always love Seagate drives because they work with both my Mac and windows decives seamlessly....Happy With This Drive...Very happy with this drive and other Seagate drives I've used. Good product!"
