  • Thank you for posting this excellent product review. The testing is really thoroughly done and I agree with all your conclusions about this device.
  • @reynold99991
    Man I hate the bot comments on youtube videos now days. Thanks for the content anyway 🙂
  • @hontam7118
    Finally, an affordable (we hope) high capacity drive!! Took them long enough. That said, I bought a Cooler Master Oracle enclosure to quickly transfer data between multiple locations. But now that's done, it's just sitting there without a purpose. Any recommendations on m.2 drives that would pair nicely with it, to use as another external SSD?
  • The humidity specified as “non-condensing” brings me a chuckle as ambient temp will affect whether condensation occurs at a given humidity. Quite the notable qualifier.
  • @Techtesters Excellent video, does the low read/write speed mean that I cannot watch movies directly from this external SSD?

    I’ve been looking to back up all my files to keep in a lockbox at the bank that I update each year. All my family photos, documents, and person work files are mostly digital. I’ve been eyeing the 8tb Samsung 870 Sata so I’m curious how this compares in price. Thank you for you coverage of SSDs and storage in general.
  • @amigatommy7
    Have 2 old T5s with 1Tb. Fast and rock solid.
  • @TheGameBench
    I would love to see some more affordable options for internal 8TB m.2 drives. I just want some faster storage options, that don't need to be extremely fast, to make them a bit more affordable than the current price point of $1,000.

    the only channel I comment and like for the algorithm
  • Superb presentation. This SSD's appeal to me is it's capacity, the main downside for me is the speed. Given it's hefty pricetag, I'll probably wait and see if a faster 8TB comes along. That's the plan, but I am an impulse buyer so....🤔
  • Would you be inetrested in benchmarking microsd cards like the upcoming 1.5tb model for like steamdeck use ?
  • @outlet6989
    Hi Nada. I noticed from your charts there are THUNDERBOLT SSDs available. My knowledge of this type of PC port is NIL. Please tell me the difference between USB and THUNDERBOLT ports. My MB supports both, but I need to know what devices connect to the THUNDERBOLT port.
  • @XX-ku7dn
    Could you please review the Seagate firecuda 540 2tb one thanks!
