Review: One of the best external hard disks available on desertcart - This external hard drive weighs only 230 grams, is composed of a 2.5-inch external hard drive, with high transfer speed that reaches 5 Gbps guaranteed by USB 3.0 which offers a maximum power of 900 mA. The design is elegant and compact since the unit measures only 119x79x15 mm and the coating is in matt black or gray plastic, very resistant to shocks and stresses. Given its small size it is particularly suitable for those who need to use it outside the home. Therefore highly recommended for business trips, as the modern and simple design makes it suitable for various contexts. It represents one of the best products sold and shipped directly from desertcart, making it one of the best best buy ever. The data transfer speed is fast thanks to SuperSpeed ​​USB 3.0 technology compatible with USB 2.0 but up to ten times faster; the memory space to allocate your multimedia files and your documents, thus relieving the work of the hard disk of your PC, is 1TB in the best-selling version (the one in this review). The NTFS file system (MS Windows) makes this external drive compatible with Windows 7/8 / 8.1 / 10 operating systems and by reformatting the drive in HFS + you get complete compatibility with Apple Mac systems. You will find in the package in addition to the external drive also a USB 3.0 micro-B cable, quick use guide and warranty card. No power supply and therefore no need to connect to the power outlet to make it work, particularly suitable for use on the go; the user manual can be found pre-installed on the hard disk. It is also recommended for the quick transfer of large quantities of content and for backups, it is an object with an essential line and anything but invasive with a single LED that tells us if the unit is exchanging data with the PC or if it is powered. from the USB. Finally, if your TV has a USB input, you can connect it to view all the folders on the hard disk Review: Brilliant - Perfect external hard-drive. We have several them now - a few of these, and 3 of the Toshiba 2TB - and use them to store documents; photos (we shoot in RAW so each photo is around 35MB which eats up memory FAST); an entire library of MP3s; and hundreds of movies. The transfer rate is pretty fast considering the amount of data we're transferring, and loading times are super-fast, so when I hook it up to my laptop, it can read the files instantly, which is pretty cool considering the sheer amount of data it's holding. External hard-drives are coming down in price even as storage is going up, but you can't go wrong with this Toshiba. It's a reliable brand, at a good price, with perfect functionality. As I said, as we've needed to order more, we ordered another here and there to test them, but always come back to this one, as it's the best we've found. ## Features - 2.5" external hard drive - Matt finish - SuperSpeed USB 3.0 - USB-powered / Compatible with Xbox One and PS4 - System Requirements - Formatted NTFS for Microsoft Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07997KKSK | | Best Sellers Rank | 48,321 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 178 in External Hard Drives | | Box Contents | Canvio Basics, USB 3.0 cable (Type A to Micro-B), User‘s manual (pre-installed on the hard drive) | | Brand Name | Toshiba | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 512 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Desktop, Laptop | | Customer Package Type | Standard packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (88,286) | | Data Transfer Rate | 5000 Gigabits Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 1000 GB | | EU Spare Part Availability Duration | 2 Years | | Enclosure Material | aluminium Plastic | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04260557510018 | | Hard Disk Average Latency | 1 Milliseconds | | Hard Disk Description | Mechanical Hard Disk | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | USB 3.0 | | Hard-Drive Size | 1000 GB | | Hardware Connectivity | USB 3.0 | | Installation Type | External Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 10.9L x 7.8W x 1.4Th centimetres | | Item Type Name | Toshiba HDTB410EK3AA 1 TB 2.5-Inch USB 3.0 Canvio Basics Portable External Hard Drive - Black | | Item Weight | 149 Grams | | Manufacturer | Toshiba | | Media Speed | USB3.0 / 2.5", 14 mm / 5 Gbit/s / NTFS formatted | | Model Name | HDTB410EK3AA Canvio Basics | | Model Number | HDTB410EK3AA | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Features | Portable | | Product Warranty | 24 months | | Read Speed | 540 Megabytes Per Second | | Specific Uses For Product | Gaming, Multimedia, Personal | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Toshiba - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Desktop, Laptop - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Digital storage capacity:** 1000 GB - **Hard disk description:** Mechanical Hard Disk - **Hard disk form factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard disk interface:** USB 3.0 - **Installation type:** External Hard Drive - **Special feature:** Portable ## Images ![Canvio Basics - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JKwnoJEjL.jpg) ![Canvio Basics - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31iecV15-KL.jpg) ![Canvio Basics - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gE4J9HbLL.jpg) ![Canvio Basics - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81RKsODTROL.jpg) ![Canvio Basics - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ud13duG4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the single come with a usb cable** A: yes it does, no setting up just plug in and use. it comes up as a drive icon and can be used straight away. **Q: Can you format it ntfs?** A: Yeah you can, it comes formatted as exfat however I'd definitely recommend formatting it to NTFS **Q: usb lead included?** A: Yes, you will receive the hard drive and a USB 3.0 cable **Q: Does this work with playstation 5? Is the speed more than 5Gbps?** A: For PS4 games, yes. For PS5 versions of games, no. You need a PCIE gen 4 M.2 drive that fits the size requirements with a heatsink on and preferably the recommended read/write speed. If all you wanna do is store PS4 games on there though or store ps5 games and don't mind waiting to transfer it over to the internal SSD then this should be a perfectly good and MUCH cheaper option. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best external hard disks available on Amazon *by V***O on 18 October 2020* This external hard drive weighs only 230 grams, is composed of a 2.5-inch external hard drive, with high transfer speed that reaches 5 Gbps guaranteed by USB 3.0 which offers a maximum power of 900 mA.

Easy to format and get set up. I leave it rested on my console and find no heat issues. Portable and conveniently sized. Connects to PS4 and PS5 without issues (however, it will only store and play PS4 games). Currently holds around 12 PS4 games (multiple AAA and AA games), with 230GB left. ## Frequently Bought Together - Toshiba 1TB Canvio Basics Portable External Hard Drive,USB 3.2.
