> New Seagate 22TB HDD could become ‘cheapest’ large capacity hard drive by Christmas That’s about a quarter of the average speeds of some of the slower external SATA-based solid-state drives we’ve evaluated.

In real life though, a 10GB mix of files and folders took around 74 seconds to be transferred which is roughly 137MBps which is a bit faster than the 2019 Backup plus at around 130MBps.

Writes varied from 129 to 137MBps while reads hovered around 140MBps on average, depending on what software was used. There’s no real surprise in store during the test: I used five benchmarks and it was a mixed bag as there is no real innovation (other than the Type-C connector) compared to the previous external 5TB hard drives. New technologies like HAMR or Helium are reserved for more lucrative markets like data centers where the need for smaller 2.5-inch hard disk drives is non-existent. There’s not much hardware improvement that can be made as there is little to no incentive to invest in R&D.

What I wrote four years ago is still valid large-capacity portable hard drives have reached a plateau. Three things that are notable about this drive are (a) it is thicker than average (15mm) thanks to the extra platters it carries, (b) it is more expensive than external hard drives that use it: $129 when we last checked on Amazon (c) it has a two-year warranty whereas all Seagate external hard drives have three-year warranties by default. At the heart of all the six 5TB portable hard drives sold by Seagate is a 5TB Barracuda internal HDD, the ST5000LM000, which spins at 5400RPM and has a 128MB cache. I reviewed one from Seagate, the Backup Plus, in 2019. Your content is important, so you don’t want to risk it all on just one device.(Image credit: Desire Athow // Future) Hardwareįor the past six years, 5TB has been the highest capacity reached by traditional hard disk drives in the 2.5-inch category. Remember, if your important data is only on one internal or external hard drive - that drive is not a “backup.” So the best preventative measure you can take is to Backup Your Stuff onto a second hard drive. Of course, if you keep a backup of all your stuff - a second copy on a separate hard drive - you probably won’t need to recover data from a damaged or dead drive in the first place. You can avoid ever having to recover lost data
