  • Alta velocidad de transferencia, Buen tiempo de acceso, Consumo contenido, 1 TB de espacio en disco, MTBF de 1,4 millones de horas
  • Nada destacable
  • La existencia de este dispositivo es signo evidente que no todo está perdido en el mundo delos discos duros mecánicos. Los SSD tienen actualmente el problema de su precio por GB en modelos que superan los 256 GB y este dispositivo no llega evidentemente a...
