Avolusion PRO-T8 Series 14TB USB 3.0 External Hard Drive for WindowsOS Desktop PC/Laptop (Black) - 2 Year Warranty

I bought this in April 2024 so it’s been over a year and a half and the drive is running well. I’ve never heard of this brand for some reason but I understand they’ve been around for quite a while and I’ve had no problems with this drive. It’s actually very fast. I use it on my Mac mini and it recognized it very quickly. I formatted it to the format I wanted and I’ve never had a problem with it. Large amounts of data mov very quickly. I also bought a 6 TB version as well. This company seems to be very solid and I would purchase this brand again.

The price and the space were almost too hard to believe. I wasn't born yesterday, buddy. I know you're going to send me a cheap piece of junk....but NOOOO! I was wrong and happily so. I use this hard drive to hold all of my media for my Plex Server and its great. The speed is fast. The case and LED lights are aesthetically pleasing on my desk. It's small enough that it tucks right in next to my desktop. I dumped my old HD onto it and downloaded another few TB's of media and it's still has more space free than my last HD had altogether. I was worried by some of the reviews but have no fear. This drive is great! It's fast enough to stream all of my media at HD or 4K over WiFi and remotely to my followers with no lag. If you are thinking this is too good to be true...you'd be wrong like I was. Bite the bullet and buy one. You won't be disappointed.

So far so good. This ended my storage issues for multiple devices. Lot's of room to spare.

Good cheap mass storage. But not without issues. Somehow it frequently locked out my wireless keyboard. Don't know why but eventually figured out if i shut it off except when using it the problem went away. Slow but reliable with lots of space for low price. Recommendable for someone who needs cheap storage and doesn't mind slow speed and possible inconvenience like my keyboard problem.

Excellent external storage. Been running it since July of 2024 with no issues, use it mostly for running local AI models without worrying about running out of space. Great buy, worth the purchase!

Piece of junk. Failed after 6 weeks. Would no longer mount on my Win 10 workstation.

Works great. AND the GoHardDrive warranty people were great too! I had some questions and their response was as they promised in their warranty statements: "We will make you smile again."

For the price, it's WELL worth it. Able to back up 2 NAS devices with this single external HDD. Keep it in EMP trash can in case we really need to watch an episode of Friends when SHTF. I have 2 and use the other to "stream" movies from at another location. Works fine for that, even with UHD/large files.
