UnionSine 8TB 3.5" External Hard Drive USB3.2Gen2 Type-C HDD Storage Compatible for PC, Desktop, Laptop,TV(Black) HD3510

I recently purchased this external hard drive from Amazon, and I couldn't be happier with its performance. Here's why I think it's fantastic:The advertised speed of 120mb/s caught my attention, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the actual speed exceeds expectations at around 200mb/s. It handles data transfer effortlessly and has significantly boosted my workflow.Not only does it work exceptionally well, but it also looks sleek and matches perfectly with my black Alienware setup. The design is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing.It seamlessly integrates with my devices, and the compatibility with my Alienware is spot on. It's always great when technology not only works well but also complements the overall setup.So far,. I've had no issues with data storage.In conclusion, this external hard drive is a fantastic addition to my tech arsenal. The actual speed exceeding the advertised specifications is a delightful surprise, and its sleek design complements my setup perfectly.

I recently bought this UnionSine external hard drive on Thanksgiving, it uses USB-C 3.2 Gen2 type-C interface, It came with one usb-c to usb-c cable and one usb-c to usb-a cable. it was very easy to attach to the computer or other devices like game console or TV box.I use it as central repository of all my family photos and videos and other files that used to saved in different small drives. now they are in one place, much easier to manage and find duplicates. Copying speeding is fast, as people mentioned the speed is way faster when using usc-c to usb-c cable. The noise is ok. so far I am very satisfied with this drive.

Data Transfer Speed/Read:220mbps to 270mbps (Type-C to Type-C only) [Fastest Transfer and Read Speeds] {4K Ultra HD Support}6mbps to 34mbps (Type-C to USB only) [Slowest Transfer and Read Speeds] {Not For Ultra HD Content}Size: 10TB (9.09TB Usable)Type: Mechanical (7200RPM)Purchase Date: September 11th, 2023 (day after my birthday lol, it was my birthday gift from my folks)It is somewhat noisy as it does make a lot of sounds which is normal for External HDDs however the knocking seems to be fairly normal as well for this specific External HDD as lot of others I read also seem to have knocking sounds.I would heavily advise using Type-C to Type-C if you want faster transfer speeds however keep in mind not PCs support Type-C to Type-C Connections as older models likely will not and not all will support 220mbps to 270mbps data transfer speeds as it heavily depends on your PCs Type-C Port. (I learnt this recently from connecting it through USB to my Laptop then through Type-C which I have personally found that Type-C is significantly faster)4K Ultra HD requires a reading file speed of 30mbps or faster and it must be continuous so do not try to watch 4K Ultra HD content unless you use the Type-C to Type-C connection only as the other method will not be fast enough nor steady enough to support Ultra HD content.I have bought the 10TB one and it does make some knocking sounds when being used or just out of the blue like when not in use which is rather alarming as knocking sounds are typically bad with External HDDs however it has been fairly solid for me.I use the Type-C to Type-C cord that comes with it and I get an average speed of around 220mbps to 270mbps which is rather fast for an External HDD however I do frequently get that I/O Device error message which can be frustrating especially when trying to transfer over files (it is fairly rare I get that message however).This device does not always show up on my 2019 Acer Predator Helios 300 and sometimes I have to plug it into my Xbox Series X to get it to work then I can unplug it and plug it back into my 2019 Acer Predator Helios 300 then it shows up as "External HDD (E:)" however it does not always stay active on my laptop and does occasionally disconnects itself then reconnects sometimes later. (Moderate chance but does resolve itself somewhat quickly) [It has never disconnected from my Xbox Series X yet however, I put yet as one may never know in the future and I've only had this HDD for about a month]

I needed an external storage device that could help me offload the less used files off my pc, mainly the video recordings and movies. I get this external hdd at a lightning sale and the price is much lower than the external hdd from bestbuy with the same capacity. And unlike the hdds I get from bestbuy, which uses the old usb 3.0 micro b, this devices uses a usb type c as the connector, which makes it perfect for my macbook, which only has usb c connectors. And the power adapter is a general 12v dc adapter, and is interchangable with the west digital adapters. So I can just pair it up with whatever adapter I could find on my desk, which makes using it really easy and convenient. And my normal use case is to just leave it connect to the power adapter on my desk, and whenever I need to write some files to, or read files from it, I just connector the usb c cable to my macbook, and it will start spinning as soon as the data cable is connected. Overall, I think it is a perfect external hdd for cold backup of files, and the usb c connector is a huge plus.

Easy to setup - Plug it in and away you go.Value for money - Cheapest i could find.Lightweight - about the weight i would expect for a 3.5" drive in a caddy...Missing features -Reliability - 0/ZERO starsCustomer Support - 4 stars - they provided a replacement USB HDD without extra cost involved. Not interested in helping getting data off faulty HDD.Build quality - 2 stars I looks good and looks like it would last but obviously the looks are skin deep only. Under the shiny plastic and nice vents / graphics, is a cheap drive. Which is what you paid for...My history with these drives -Some month ago now my NAS had filled up and it was begging me t o replace a disk due to "issues" So brought this as a backup (Just in case if failed on me before my new NAS arrived, which was on back order) and backed up 10TB of data on it, so that i could migrate from my old to my new NAS. Copied across not a problem (after a few days of continual copying on 100Mb/s network connection... OLD NAS) Anyway likely i did, as old NAS then starting making clunking noises and showing up bad bit rot and drive errors on 2 of the 4 NAS disks and promptly stopped working. Thought, wow how lucky am I... New NAS arrived a week later which was 2 month faster than expected. Plugged in the new NAS and configured it. All fine until i started to copy data off this drive onto new NAS. Started off ok and left to do its stuff over night via a USBC/3 cable rather than over network cable, as thought it would be faster. Woke up the next morning to find only 4% complete and not moving, this drive and NAS was silent. No chatter like there was when i left it copying. Looked at the NAS and it reported IO Error. Checked HDD and couldn't access it. Rebooted this USB HDD and the dreaded clunk, clunk, clunk, buzzz, buzz, spin up/ spin down/ spin up... you get the idea. Drive had failed. Unable to get any more data off it and so tried in vain to recover the old NAS stored Data, to see if i could get that to work with new NAS and again was unsuccessful.Contacted seller and they apologised and supplied new HDD free of charge (which was very nice of them). I did explain this doesn't help me as i have 15 years of family photos and videos on this device along with 20 years of legal/ private emails / files on it. Company not even entertain me regarding recovering it.So now going to have to save up / fork out £400+ for a data recovery company to recover the data from failed USB HDD onto the replacement HDD supplied by company (which i hope does not fail during the process or when i move back onto NAS when recovered) before making a backup on the cloud like i should have done in the first place, rather than paying out for this.Moral of this story, HDD fail even brand new ones, NAS's fail over time (specially when you fill them up all the way!). When you think you have a copy, take another copy in a cloud if possible. Suppliers don't care if there HDD goes down with your data on. Its your fault for not taking a backup, even if this was a backup... If i had done the 3 copies i would be £xxx better off by now! When i finally get data recovered will have family photos in 3 places - one of which will be in cloud. Just in case one dies/ gets hacked/ or gets corrupt/ destroyed.

Bon rapport qualité prix.Livraison rapide.Légèrement bruyant, mais à ce prix, on ne peut pas tout avoir.

I had taken a chance as so many large capacity drive scams on this site. But this is legit.Works fine, not the fastest. But enough to stream my 1080p movie rips from my server. Taken days to copy everything over, but shows that the capacity is legit.Had for a few months and perfect for the price and size

L'hd è veloce ma un po' rumoroso, soprattutto in fase di avvio dopo uno stanby (va a riposo se non lo si usa per un po'). Il led rimane acceso anche a PC spento, fastidioso ma basta una peccetta. La capacità effettiva è meno di 17Tb per via che i produttori calcolano 1Mb=1000kb invece che 1024 come fa il computer in esadecimale. Comunque lo consiglio per il rapporto prezzo/prestazioni

Velocità ok - Rumore, troppo alto
