Samsung D3 Desktop 2TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive

The Samsung D3 Desktop 2TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive (STSHX-D201TDB), which also known as Samsung D3 Station, provides up to 3 TB of storage space for movies, videos, photos, and other important documents. It has overcome the myth that external devices are slow, by featuring a super speed USB 3.0 with 5.0 GB/sec. The package includes an external hard drive, A/C power and USB cable. It is available on Amazon.

Worth noticing that underneath the plastic enclosure is a Seagate 7200RM hard disk drive. Seagate acquired Samsung’s hard drive division a while back, and it’s continued to use the Samsung brand name.

This drive have very good heating performance. Tests shows that even after working at room temperature half a day, sensors might register disk temperature not higher than 45-50 degrees Celsius. The drive will work with both Windows and Mac operation systems, but it is set up for use with Windows out of the box and formatted as a single NTFS drive.

One not very good aspect a lack of energy-saving feature with the drive. It powers off with your computer or when the USB cable is removed.There also appears to be no means of putting the drive to sleep when it’s not in use.

The Samsung D3 Desktop 2TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive is a 4.5 star rated device that offers worry free data security. The automatic backup maintaining feature backs up everything quickly in the background. Its customers have acknowledged its speedy and noise free recovery, however, the package lacks a manual guide, which is not available online either as reported by some consumers. One significant feature of this device is 3 year warranty that makes it a superior choice.
