Toshiba will not honour warranty

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 June 2019

Style Name: Enterprise SATACapacity: 8TBVerified Purchase

I phoned Toshiba UK to find out how much warranty my new enterprise class drive had left on it. I was passed from pillar to post and after phoning 4 different toshiba numbers I ended up in Toshiba Germany. Toshiba will not honour warranty on these drives. They state the serial number means they are OEM and supplied by the dealer. The dealer in this case is Amazon. Amazon will only guarantee the Enterprise drives for two years (these drives are supposed to have 5 years warranty) and after that Amazon tell you to send it back to the manufacturer. The manufacturer have stated they will not take these drives back under warranty.

What an awful mess.

Well priced, reliable, good capacity, but noise and heat could be a concern

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 April 2019

Style Name: NASCapacity: 8TBVerified Purchase

My intention was to buy two 8TB drives (one in a PC where noise mattered and a backup where noise didn't matter), but given some of the other review comments about noise, I thought I'd only buy one of these for now to see what the noise was like.

Had this running for a day now with some observations:-
When installing via a USB to SATA adaptor (thought I'd try it externally first before fitting into a machine), it only detects about 1TB of data. I was a bit worried but it's fine once installed internally into a machine's SATA port, which would then see the full 8TB. I formatted as GPT rather than MBR.

Pros
Great storage capacity for the money (bought significantly cheaper than other 8TB drives, even the SMR drives).
Seems reasonably speedy
Arrived in nicely padded packaging - it would seem Amazon have improved since some of the other reviews!

Cons
Seems to run hotter than other drives (the 9w rating vs most other drives 6w would explain this, but note this run)
Noisier than other drives I have. I wouldn't say as bad as some reviews make out, but you can definitely heard the clunk of writing and the whirr of the drive spinning.

In summary, I'm on the fence still whether to buy a second on of these, or spend more money on a quieter drive... My one doesn't seem as bad as some of the comments make out, however sufficient for me not to rush out and buy a second one just yet...

Will update in future if there are any changes.

Update (1 week): I decided to buy a second one more because I couldn't be bothered with the hassle of taking the first one out of the machine it was in to put into a second machine and copying all the files around.
Noise wise, once setup and have the drive sleep after an hour of in activity, does make it better however I can understand for a lot of people it probably doesn't work for them.

So my summary persists for now
An average drive but noisy and emits heat, however it is currently priced better than the competition to compensate...

Update Nov 2019: 6 months in and both drives working fine. Main one is one 24/7. Noise levels are no worse than originally..

Update April 2020: 12 months on and both drives still working fine. Main one has still been running 24/7. Once again, noise levels are no worse than before. Raising my rating to 4 stars, since although not perfect due to increased noise and heat, they have been good value and worked well and proven reliable so far.

Update August 2020: over a year on, both drives have been running 24/7 now and touch wood, both perfectly reliable. Given their price point and the fact they've been running now in machines in a warm, humid cellar (25c-30c with around 70-90pct humidity), these drives have now in my eyes eventually earned a well deserved 5 star rating despite my original misgivings...

Rattles like tractor.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 October 2017

Style Name: NASCapacity: 4TBVerified Purchase

Seems quick enough though I have not formally tested it, but the noise! It rattles like one of the OLD MFM drives from the 80's. If your installation target is in an unoccupied shed or you really need an audible confirmation that the drive is working - fine. Otherwise go for something else.

Updated. It has just failed after 6 months of very light use as a secondary drive in a machine that spends most of its time on standby. I suspect this is a bad batch being sold cheap

DO NOT BUY. THERE IS NO WARRANTY.

Style Name: NASCapacity: 8TBVerified Purchase

DO NOT BUY. THERE IS NO WARRANTY. If it fails you have to return via the retailer but they are not interested after the 1st month and refer you to the Toshiba who tell you to go to the retailer. My failed after 1 year with a "3 year warranty" that is un-usable.

Good for gamers

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 February 2019

Style Name: Desktop 3.5"Capacity: 4TBVerified Purchase

This review is aimed at gamers and is for the 4TB X300 model.

I've spent the last few weeks looking for a new HD drive to compliment my SSD drives. Currently there are 3 makers of HD drives; Seagate, Weston Digital and Toshiba. All other HD drives are OEM from these 3.

Normally I'd go with Seagate, they have been around a long time and are normally a decent drive at a fair price but recently they have been adding shingled drives into the consumer drive market (for more info google 'Shingled magnetic recording' and more importantly see the increased resource/write overheads), and whilst these are decent enough for archive purposes, they are not really ideal for a gaming rig.

So that leaves WD or Toshiba, and as the later is a 7200 drive and is almost half the price of the similar WD Black I'm replacing & hearing good things about them, I thought I'd give it a try, and I'm glad I did. It's fast, at a good price and is much quieter than the WD Black it replaced. I went with the retail version because it comes in decent packaging, that was important for me, I'm not sure I'd risk an OEM/Bulk version due to the poor packaging that Amazon uses for OEM HD drives.

I'll be sure to edit this if I have any future problems with the drive.
