    the cost vs the time you wait for a normal 2.5" HHD to copy files over isnt worth it.

    sustained write speeds have never been too much of an issue for hard drives :).. my top of the range SSD is only 2 times as fast when moving a single 1GB files :)

    most of the time the PC is the limiting factor .. not all PC's can move files at 500MB's a second even if usb 3.1 c can

      So your saying it's not worth it?

    • Tacooo on 17/08/2017 - 13:01

      Yeah this price is pathetic. I'd much rather purchase a 3TB 2.5" HDD and enclosure and save a cool $300.

      • YellowKnight on 17/08/2017 - 13:21

        Maybe these are good for travelling with?

          These are good devices, but they're niche devices. If you have a large working set that you need to move between machines or work on from different machines, can't use mechanical drives in your environment, or a similar need, then they're great. Their small physical size doesn't hurt either.

          @atj:
          Agreed, great for moving a lot of data very fast on a regular basis if you need pocket size.
          For all else USB3 thumb drives or external hard disks would be better.

    Probably will see these drop in price further now that they will be replaced by the T5 at the same price point.

    • YellowKnight on 17/08/2017 - 18:07

      T5? What's the difference in models.

      • Lavec on 17/08/2017 - 18:40

        T3 450MBps, T5 540MBps
        T3 USB 3.1 gen 1 (5 Mbps), T5 USB 3.1 gen 2 (10Mbps)
        Bottom line about 20% speed improvement.

        • Mooncakes on 17/08/2017 - 21:27

          wouldn't that be Gbps?

        • Lavec on 18/08/2017 - 08:35

          @Jetship: right you are. Having a 540MBps drive on a 10Mbps interface would be more than silly haha. It's 10Gbps as you point out.
