  • Mostly great at two months
Style: Performance Desktop Pattern: Hard Drive Capacity: 4 TB
Have not noticed any noisy operation as mentioned by a few reviewers. This one was made in Philippines. I don't know whether they manufacture or simply assemble there. Since I'm using a nine year-old Linux box, can't get full rated performance out of the drive but it is fast enough for my uses (with one exception). On standard Ext4 Partitions, I get very decent read and write speeds, around half of the rated spd for the drive. Running LUKS encrypted Partitions, however, write speed is painfully slow. I suspect this is mainly due to issues with the operating system (Debian) and the older computer hardware not handling file transfers well on the encrypted drive. ... show more

Packaging is good. Arrived in good condition and worked right out the box. No issues after several weeks of use.

  • On my Linux box, it's just as fast as the SSD
Style: Professional Workstation Pattern: Hard Drive Capacity: 4 TB
Was a little put off going from an ssd to a spinning disk again, but the x300 pro is just as fast if not faster than the samsung evo 870 it replaced. I now have 6x the storage and didn't lose any speed.. i'd call that a win.. update: unfortunately this batch of drives isn't as good as the prior set.. while it does still work, it's significantly lost speed vs the other drive. To the point where this is now my secondary storage hard disk. still give it 3 stars, but it's now no where near as fast as the SSD it replaced. I am guessing here, but it seems as though they really are fast on a single platter read/write, but not great once you start to stack on data. note: the system in question for reference is: i5 12th gen, noctua cooler, 128gb ddr4 3200, 750watt power supply, linux ubuntu 22.04, nvidea RTX 3060, and two of these drives on a pcie sata connector with raid 1. ... show more

  • Nice Fast Storage Option
Style: Performance Desktop Pattern: Hard Drive Capacity: 4 TB
I've been using this drive (4TB X300) for about 7 months now. It's speedy for a hard drive, enough that other than when it needs to spin back up from sleep, I don't feel the comparatively slower speeds in most uses, although I primarily use it for data storage and save gaming/applications for SSDs. It can be a little noisy in use but it's silent at idle, which is where it spends most of its time. CMR is a huge plus and I'm glad Toshiba not only offers that, but advertises it as well, so you don't have to hunt spec sheets (or user-reported specs!). The price is imo competitive, with CMR, 256MB cache, and 7200 RPM. Similar capacity drives can be had for less but will perform slower and less reliably. ... show more

I added this as a backup for my sold state drive and it has been working flawlessly and quietly. The price was good enough.

  • Extra Cache Not Equal to Higher Performance
Style: Performance Desktop Pattern: Hard Drive Capacity: 4 TB
I got this for a new build because the first one I got in 2015 is still a beast as an extra drive attached via USB. this one has 512MB cache vs 256MB cache in my old X300. This one was cheaper than the one with 256MB cache which was still available to purchase new. Thinking this would be even faster (more responsive) I went for cheaper w/more cache. The disk is way less responsive on my brand-new build with top end specs than my rig from 2015. SMH. Anyway, it's a third disk to my two NVMe drives so it will serve my needs as an internal backup disk. ... show more
