Reviews around drive (3.22 of 5)

  • I'm sure it's a good drive, but the external USB enclosures (at least the ones I tried) haven't caught up with it.
  • but now when I try to upgrade my Mac OSX it says the drive has S.M.A.R.T errors and needs to be replaced
  • Other than this, the hard drive is fine
  • Sure enough it was the stock Toshiba SARA hard drive
  • This drive outperforms my samsung 960 evo and cost me around a third the price per gigabyte
  • Read remaining 9 reviews for drive

Reviews around sector (1.00 of 5)

  • I tried Aomei Partition to fix the bad sectors and that didn't even work
  • I ran Chkdsk/fixboot on the M2 drive and it showed a insane amount of bad sectors, along with very long error codes
  • Dell sneaks an NTFS sector on the drive
