Toshiba X300 14TB 7200RPM SATA III 6Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

Após aproximadamente 40 dias de teste, não tenho do que reclamar. Espaço de sobra pra tudo que preciso, funcionamento excelente e velocidades honestas. Destaco também que desta vez a Amazon embalou extremamente bem o hd, ao contrário da minha compra anterior que enviaram somente o hd sem plástico bolha ou qualquer proteção decente.

I have the 14TB version (12.7TB actual). On it I've installed 2TB of emulators and ROMs, all my games from GOG, Origin, Amazon, Uplay and Epic, all the videos/photos of my kids, and everything else personal and valuable to me, and I'm still sitting on 7.26TB of space. I use a separate 8TB drive for Steam, but I'd still have 2.5TB left if I moved it all to this drive. It's not silent, but it's not noisy at all. If my PC wasn't otherwise a ninja wrapped in cottonballs, I wouldn't notice the small amount of noise from this, and as it is, it's not a distraction. And it's faster than I would expect it to be. No issues with data loss, bad sectors, crashes or anything like that after 15 months of constant and considerable use. I haven't used many Toshiba drives, so I rolled the dice and have been very pleased with the results. I don't do twitch-based, online competitive gaming on the PC, so I'm sure there are far better drives for that (any mid-tier or better SSD, for starters), but I've no speed complaints from this one.

This hard drive is extremely noisy and clicks louder than any HDD I've ever owned. If I was not past the return window, I would return it. It's extremely distracting because Windows seems to do auto-indexing and/or defrag at random times. I'm going to move this to an external enclosure and see if I can put it inside of my printer cart or somewhere else to reduce the distraction. Update: I've attempted to moved it inside of my printer cart (a wooden cabinet) in a disk enclosure. It is still so loud that it is extremely distracting. My desk in my home office is against the garage wall. I might pass a USB cable through into the garage to put this drive in the garage since it is so loud. I guess that's my next step.

installing was basically plug and play but be prepared to format the drive first. great company, i even had to refund and re buy the first one because a neighborhood dog got to my package before i could and used it for a chew toy. both came in super fast.

I'm very happy with this purchase. I already own a 6GB X300, which has been performing very well, making the decision to purchase the larger capacity drive much easier. I'll update this review if I run into any unresolvable difficulties, but right now I highly recommend this drive.
