Dell External Disk Drive

eSata works good for an external disk drive.

The hard drive in my Dell 620 (Seagate ST31000524AS) was failing ... causing slow operation and repeatedly throwing reports of disk errors, bad sectors, etc. despite my attempts at repair using a variety of programs. After finally getting a successful disk image from the original drive using Macrium Reflect, I swapped the drives and loaded the disk image onto this replacement. On restart my PC booted right up from this drive and it's been running like new since.

This is my favorite external disk now!

I cannot speak to disk speed because I use it only for external backup in a drive sled. I have 3 external mirrors which I keep offline except when mirroring. This is due to having lost 2 external backups within 4 days of each other so now I have 3 and stagger when they are online.

Wow, I love this hard drive. It is soooooo much faster than a regular old external drive with a spinning disk. I will be able to use this with my base model M1 Mac Mini. I can't wait!

This external hard drive works really nice and quiet, and it saves lots of disk space on my laptop. The price for it is also reasonable.

This external hard disk drive stores a ton and is light and portable. Great for video on the go editing.

I just added the WD 4TB Elements External Desktop Hard Disk Drive to my� back up solution (6 hard drives) and Windows 10.� I disconnected the power and USB cable from a full WD hard drive and replaced it with this new drive and fired it up. It works great, just like I would expect from Western Digital.

Needed an external hard drive for my larger Dell Inspiron 15 computer. just like my smaller Dell travel computer. I needed some extra space.

I've been using this connected to a MacBook M1 Max for about two weeks. I have an external drive, 4K Dell monitor, iPad, and iPhone connected. All are functioning without issues. My only minor complaint is that I wish I could turn off the LED on the front.
