Transcend 4TB StoreJet 25H3 2.5-inch USB3.0 Portable Hard Drive

Purchased in June 2021 as a backup drive, the USB connection appears to have failed within 6 months, and the device does not seem to be drawing enough power to mount on either a PC or a Mac (I have tried several). Essentially worse than useless, as a drive that is unreliable is worse than not having any backups thanks to the false sense of security you may have from *thinking* your files are backed up. I will be returning my broken drive to Amazon, but my data is now lost unless I am prepared to shell out for a specialist recovery service. Dreadful product.

Solidly built and more importantly actually has 4TB of data space (it may show as 3.7 TiB in the 1024 x 1024 x 1024 x1024 calculation). Many solid-state drives especially Kingston we have found to have less than the GB (even accounting for GiB) advertised, so this is good. Will update this review after using it for some time, since we have just purchased it and all initial indications are good.

The item is not operating properly. Just arrived today and on first use copying to it from another hard drive- the connection keeps logging out and telling me that the device is not recognized. I believe that the cable supplied is defective (have seen a report on that on another buyers feedback). No trying to use another cable from my other hard drives. Will have to order a replacement cable. NOT GOOD ENOUGH for a price of over £104.....

The product arrived as described and pictured. Shipping was super fast arriving a week before it was supposed to. Product arrived to my surprise even before tracking info was sent. I’ve been using this product to store media and it’s been working well so far. Happy customer!

Excelente compra usb 3.0 diseño compacto y lo mejor 4tb

After 1 year of rare using this hdd my pc and laptop can not open hdd any longer. I tried recovery with no success. It just frozen and doesnt go for recovery. After being trying recovery my pc does not see any longer hdd. I have 5 more hdd from other providers and those are working perfectly.

Molto buono. Silenzioso e anche veloce. Ho altri due modelli della stessa marca, di tipologia analoga, ma più sottili, con i quali mi trovo bene.

Excellent produit. Rapide pour un disque externe, résistant dans le temps et résistant aux chocs et résistant a plusieurs redémarrages sauvages de windows pour les mises à jour

Have used several of these in the past. All still functioning, so in terms of failure they are fine and should be reliable and have proven to be. THE GOOD Speed is about average Goes to sleep when not in use Fairly robust and durable THE NOT SO GOOD Occasionally cuts out when transferring large amount of data or files. (about 100Gbs or more) is not military standard or robust for outdoor stuff. OVERALL QUITE IMPRESS AND RELIABLE I WOULD RECOMMEND.

Gerne wieder.
