The editors didn't like

  • Works with USB 3.0 but not thunderbolt
  • Uses mechanical drives rather than solid state drives
  • RAID0 for backup is dangerous
  • Not serviceable by the user
  • Slight price premium over two 2TB USB 3.0 drives
  • Can eat up two USB connectors
  • No more Universal Storage Module (USM) interface. No Thunderbolt option. Bulky
  • Very difficult to recover from a RAID 0 failure
  • Thicker and heavier than single-drive alternatives
  • Users can't change the internal drives
  • The RAID 0 setup might result in a higher risk of data loss
  • RAID 0 carries risks that would discourage many users to purchase
  • Seagate Dashboard doesn't have the option to change the RAID configuration
  • Local price (India) is insanely priced
  • Casing should be lot stronger considering it houses 2x mechanical HDDs

  • La capacité,  Les performances,  Le programme de sauvegarde
  •  Rien
  • Le Backup Plus Fast est une vraie réussite et mérite ses cinq étoiles ! Il offre une capacité record de 4 To pour un prix raisonnable, 300 euros, mais aussi des vitesses de transfert très élevées. Et son programme de sauvegarde se révèle complet et simple...

  • Performances pour un disque dur portable, Capacité de 4 To, Prix comparé à un modèle 4 To de bureau, Discret, Garantie 3 ans
  • Un peu encombrant pour un modèle portable, Performances limitées par les disques durs
  • Vendu environ 300 euros, le Seagate Backup Plus Fast est probablement le disque dur portable de 4 To le plus rapide du marché. Seagate s’offre en plus le luxe d’offrir un double disque dur auto-alimenté à l’aide d’un seul port USB 3.0 dans un format extrê...

  • sehr gute Gesamtleistung, hohe Kapazitat, NVMe 1.3, 5 Jahre Garantie
  • Schreibleistung nach Füllung des SLC-Caches TLC-typisch niedrig
  • Die FireCuda 510 SSD von Seagate macht insgesamt einen sehr guten Eindruck. Das Modul ist ordentlich verarbeitet und die SeaTools Software unterstützt den Anwender bei der Verwaltung der SSD.Auch in Sachen Leistung können wir der FireCuda 510 mit 2 TB ein...

  • hohe sequenzielle Transferleistung, USB Type C Schnittstelle, schlichtes Design
  • relativ großes Gehäuse, dafür sehr flach
  • Mit der Fast SSD hat Seagate eine solide externe SSD im Angebot, die sich für alle Anwender eignet, denen die herkömmliche externe Festplatte zu langsam geworden ist. Die Möglichkeit das Laufwerk via USB Type C anzubinden ist komfortabel und gleichermaßen...

  • Abstract:  In diesem Video geht es um die sehr schnelle externe Festplatte Seagate Backup Plus Fast mit satten 4 TB Speicherplatz. Genau genommen handelt es sich um zwei 2,5-Zoll 2-TB-Platten, die Seagate in einem Gehäuse vereint und zu einem Raid-0-Verbund zusammen...

  • sehr gute Transferraten dank RAID 0, geringe Betriebsslautstärke, gute Softwareunterstützung für Backups, Smartphone-App als zusätzliches Feature, kompaktes Format, kein externes Netzteil nötig
  • höhere Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit durch RAID 0 vergleichsweise teuer
  • Für schnelle Datensicherungen ist die Seagate Backup Plus Fast mit USB 3.0 und einem RAID 0 Festplattenverbund bestens geeignet. Das Seagate Dashboard unterstützt den User bei der Erstellung von Backups und bietet weitere zusätzliche Features. Wir empfe...
