Review: 3年間持ち運びデータ用と使っていたHDDが壊れたので買い替えです。 いろいろな評判からまあ信用できるだろうということで選んでいますが、 普段はデスクトップに付け、出掛けるときにはノートPCと一緒に持って行く ということを続けると、数年に1回は壊れます。 デスクトップにはバックアップ用に同じものがもう一台繋いであります。 本当はノート(SSDモデル)のデータを帰ってきたらバックアップとした方が 壊れないでしょうね。 SSDで1TB3万円以下が出たから次の持ち運び用はSSDかな。

*by R***Y on 9 May 2025*

Ho acquistato questo hard disk esterno tempo fa e fin dal primo utilizzo si è rivelato pratico ed efficiente. La connessione USB 3.0 garantisce trasferimenti di file rapidi, ma è perfettamente compatibile anche con porte USB 2.0, risultando molto versatile. Non richiede alcuna installazione: basta collegarlo e funziona subito, rendendolo perfetto anche per chi non ha particolare dimestichezza con la tecnologia. Il design è elegante, sobrio e resistente, adatto sia all’uso quotidiano sulla scrivania che in viaggio. Un’ottima soluzione di archiviazione, capiente e stabile nel tempo.
