Delivery as fast as ever.
The equipment is correctly packaged in a small cardboard box, and the disc is in a transparent plastic print.
There are no problems with connection, although there are 2 points to note.
The first is the type of connection, which is via a USB A link (type MALE - MALE).
The second point concerns the length of this 30.0 cm cable.
Well, it's not too annoying in my case, but the point is worth noting.
The disc is in a black plastic envelope, with silicone ORANGE corners, which are used to store the cable.
It does its job perfectly as NAS backup storage.
After receiving and having made a backup of 560GB, the next day, the disk was no longer recognized by my laptop under W10. I contacted the after-sales service who answered me very quickly and advised me to redo a formatting. What I did. Since then the disk works perfectly. They even sent me a small control utility. I ran it immediately and the result is correct. I ran it again recently and there are no errors displayed. I am reassured. I have been a customer for some time now and have never had any problems with this company. I recommend them. Happy New Year to all.JoseD
So what more can be said about an external HDD. Nothing special bought to do data storage so no need for a transfer warhorse! It does the job perfectly so nothing to complain about.
I've been using it for a while now and it's a great product.
Good looks, shock protection, storage for the small USB 3 cable, good speeds - as fast as an internal drive (thanks USB 3), not too expensive.
I highly recommend.
This is the second disc of this model that I have ordered, as I am perfectly satisfied with it.
It's a robust piece of equipment, which was a very important criterion for me because I regularly transport it.
The cable is a bit short for my taste but this does not detract from the qualities of this product.
I've only been using this external HD for 10 months, but I was so excited about it that I got a second one for my wife.
The plug is a USB plug, not micro-USB, so much the better, it was one of my eliminatory criteria for the choice of an external HDD.
The cable is really short though. It will fit on a table next to a laptop, but for an enclosure PC, it might be just right.
The icing on the cake: it's exactly the same colour as my PC case :P
This drive is the second of this model that I have purchased from LDLC. I think this is the best expression of satisfaction I can give. Admittedly, today, this drive is a bit expensive for its capacity. But this is compensated by its advantages of transportability and robustness. I just wish I could have chosen between several colours as I will have to find a way to distinguish between my two discs (label?); but this is a really minor detail.
Small by its size... it fits in a pocket, the cable is fixed on the edges anti-shock and the disk is self-powered via the usb 3.0... a very good HD 2TB... it will suit all audiences without problems
Equipment received in good working order, fairly quickly. It works properly.
No particular problems, it is too new to know if it will work properly in the future.
