FUBAR..

 

[djyoung08]

I have this one for my XB1.

Amazon product ASIN B01GKFQCAU

YUP.

I have like 10TB worth of western digital hard drives throughout my house and office.

For HDDs they're my choice.

For SSD's I use Samsung Evo drives.

Waiting to see how the new WD SSDs perform.

I FEEL LIKE EXTERNAL HD'S ARE ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR"

SO GOING CHEAP WILL GET YOU LESS STABLE MEMORY, AND SPENDING MORE WILL PROTECT YOU MORE.

SOMEONE PLS LET ME KNOW IF I'M WRONG

I'm no hdd expert, just going off what I read from reviews. Certain seagate hdd models like the 3tb models use 3 1tb platters because it's cheaper. With 3 platters, there's more chance of data corruption, issues, etc. WD to my knowledge uses 1 3tb platter or 1 2tb platter, etc in their hdds. Given that, the WD product will last longer than seagates' products because there's less moving parts. Some seagate products like the 4tb or 5tb models use 1 platter. I'm not 100%, I could be wrong on that. My 500gb WD lasted 5 years, but I broke it because I dropped it. SSDs have no moving parts, so supposedly they can last 10+ years. Even if you drop them. 

It's easy to say that the seagate "should" last you at least 2 years, given the warranty. If I had that hdd, I'd coast with it for 3 years, then check to see if seagate has some type of hdd health software like WD does. Which can help you know if your hdd is about to fail. It's called s.m.a.r.t. status. http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/

SSDs/SSHDs are more suited for pcs imo. You'd get more value from them, by popping em in your pc than your xb1.

If scorpio doesn't come with an ssd and if ssd prices come down way more, than ssds would be ideal to me for consoles. 

WHAT DOES THE IYEN GOD USE?

[7th Chamber]

I'm so trash at Gears

 

[mrdeeds]

Western Digital drives have been solid for me for over 10 years.

I've had a handful of Seagate drives die on me.

 

[7th Chamber]

I copped whatever WD 2TB HD was being posted last Black Friday and it's served me well

 

[iYen]

You should be good, but check this link to see if there's some hdd health software.

 http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/

That way you can do a yearly or bi-monthly check up on your hdd.

Amazon should let you return it, if that's the route you want to go.

 

[spizike231]

So all yall comin out the woodworks talmbout Seagates suck and WD are solid, but none of yall mentioned anything when dude said he bought a Seagate all proud.

That's cold, even for NT.

Money's already spent, it's too late.  Not like he asked beforehand.

It's like the dude that married the neighborhood thot, she's his now.  He just has to make the best of the situation.

I've posted about the portable drive i use at least a dozen times and have been pretty outspoken about how much i dislike seagate.

Even when M$ announced their external drive, they announced that it was a partner ship with seagate and i told everyone to run.

Tell wherever you copped from that it corrupted and you want to return.

They'll believe you

 

[7th Chamber]

It was Amazon so he could return it if he really wanted. Looks like it was highly rated though.

Yeah he's just asking for the L at this point.

 

[mrdeeds]

The good thing is that this is just an external drive for video games.  Even if it did fail he wouldn't lose anything that couldn't be downloaded again.

Do you use a RAID set up for your photography?
