UnionSine 320GB External Hard Drive USB3.0 Portable HDD Storage Compatible for PC,Mac,Ps4,Xbox,Hard Drive Storage Bag-HD2512

This is a good external drive for archival, storage of documents, pictures and the like - its compact, doesnt require external power, has a LOT of space and comes with a nice small USB cable and a carrying bag. Its not slow FOR A MECHANICAL DRIVE - but its still a mechanical drive, and not a solid state/SSD/flash drive, so dont expect those speeds. The ~125MB/s read/write that I got from it (see benchmark in picture) is a good result given what it is, and the well proven technology should make it durable. The outer case is plastic, but it seems to be well made, without sharp corners and since the drive inside doesnt generate a lot of heat, it should be just fine. I will note, because this is a mechanical (i.e., spinning) drive, you shouldnt move it much or jostle it when in use. When not in use, its reasonably durable though still less than an SSD but at a much lower cost. And thats ultimately what this comes down to - if you need inexpensive, high volume external storage and the use case doesnt need to be high speed (archival, documents, etc.) then this is a great drive to pick up!

This one came with a very nice bag to carry it in. To test it, I used a desktop computer and plugged it into a USB 3 port. The sequential read and write speeds about what I would expect from a mechanical hard disk. The random read speeds were oddly low and lower than the random write speeds. I tested this three times and on the third time, I reformatted the drive with the default for Windows instead of the original exFAT. but the results were fairly consistent with all three tests. I intend to use this as a backup drive.

Massive storage space and good data transfer speeds. I use this to back up my work computer and software and it has worked very well for me. Plug and play and off you go.

I bought this for my son two months ago and it is working well, no issues so far.

Great for backing up my files and random data dumps from my PC and phone, speeds are ok for a spinning disk hard drive. Good drive, Id order it again.

I got this specifically to back up my PS3. It is a aged system that I plan to fix or replace as the onboard wifi/bluetooth card is broken and soldered to the board making replacement of part difficult. (I have the tools, but repairs like this are not easy and not 100% going to fix the issue even though I have a replacement part already.) It hasnt died yet, and a cheap adapter allows me to use my controller still for games I play. The backup went without a hitch, and I saw no issues with the hardware which was responsive. I do not know what hardware they put into this casing, and it could change as often people get the lowest cost units they can, which does not mean worst quality. I just needed to make sure I had something to occasionally back up my hardware so I could transfer at any given time.

I got this to expand the storage of my Xbox One, and Ive had no issues with it. The drive set up without any hiccups, and Ive had no problems playing games stored on it; I havent noticed any extra loading times. This drive has been an easy upgrade to my old Xbox One.

This external drive is reasonably fast for a 5400 RPM platter drive. The hard drive itself is made by HGST, a subsidiary of Western Digital, and Ive had very good success with HGST drives in the past. The price seems to be reasonable as well for a 1TB external drive. It came in a no frills package with only a short (17 total) USB Type A cable, so if you want to connect it to a Type C port, you will need an adapter. Typical of external drives like this, the case is glued together so it cannot be disassembled to remove or exchange the hard drive. Fit and finish is nice, and I havent had any issues so far.

Its hard to believe you can get 1tb of storage for this price, but here it is. It appears to be well made and functions exactly as it should. Speed is good and its easy to use.

This is compact and light weight. It helped me free up a lot of space on my device. I like how easy it was to use.
