Toshiba X300 Pro 12TB and 20TB HDD review: Much better than its non-Pro siblings

 

X300 marks the spot, as long as it's Pro.

Good performance, particularly at 12TB ; 512MB of DRAM cache from 10-20TB ; Satisfactory 20TB pricing

N300 Pro better priced at 12-18TB ; No standout features or support

The X300 Pro is a solid performer and a good HDD for workstations and desktops, especially when extra capacity and reliability are needed.

Toshiba X300 - High-Performance Hard Drive

 

Excellent data transfer speeds. Good capacity for the price. Runs nice and cool. Very quiet too.

Had a g-sense error of 1 out of the box, however it has not risen above 1, so we'll see how it goes in the long run.

Toshiba X300 - High-Performance Hard Drive

 

Its extremely fast as it says on the tin. I have tested the read/write against my existing SSD , and to my surprise, its even faster than my 2 years old SSD. I bought it just for data backup but then changed my mind and installed win 10 , its super...

Its a bit noisier compare to my ACZ Agility SSD. Bear in mind you have to format it as GPT partition table to get full 4TB and not in MBR as it only supports upto 2TB.

Toshiba X300 - High-Performance Hard Drive

 

+ high capacity for the price. +Good speed for a mechanical drive - 120 - 130MB/s easily achieved.

-Slightly more noisy than the Seagate drive it replaced, you wouldn't notice though unless the room was silent. Can't comment on reliability this soon.
