Planning to buy an external 2.5" HDD 1TB USM 3.0 for storage. Reliability and years of warranty are priority, performance is secondary.

Down to 3 choices after referring to pricelist
1. Buffalo mini station RM24x
2. Hitachi Touro Mobile RM22x
3. Western Digital MyPassport RM24x

Are these models come with 3y warranty?

Looking for suggestion, currently I considering to buy toshiba canvio slim or sony external hard disk.

So far, I do not have any experience regarding hard disk.

Anyone owned sony external hard disk ? How does its weight, does it feel heavy to carry around ? I need ultra portable and light weight since I travel around.

Warranty doesn't bother me as long as the hard disk is reliable for daily use
*
i just bought buffalo pz and sony ext hdd 2 weeks ago, sony one consider slim enough and buffalo high end casing seem promising too. both are 3yr wrty.

Wanted to buy a new external harddisk, but why got so many different variants with the same capacity but different price from 1 manufacturer? (BTW, I want to buy from IPMart is it reliable?)

http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/WD,M...php?prod=378478

and

http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/West...php?prod=351129

Why got RM10 difference? The expensive one better?

or should I go back to Seagate?

http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Seag...php?prod=351904

Because currently I have been using my Seagate FreeAgent GO 320GB for more than 4 years and it is still running well, just that its storage is full already, no way I am going to delete files in them
*
i also have a unit of seagate 320gb still working very great, but cannot compare with nowadays low QC seagate ext hdd, more than 50% of my company usb seagate aldy sent warranty before. doh.gif

Just register here :

Register your disk, raise RMA then it'll generate barcode label for you which you need to stick on the box and follow their packing instructions.

Was wondering anyone have any personal experience with SG Desktop SSHD 1/2TB?

Thinking of getting one.  My current HD is running out of space.

I know the speed increase cannot be compared to SSD but I need more space and at the same time would definitely would not mind a speed increase.

last month try to get from lowyat, but none of them got it, while czone last week only starting to have stock nia

Yes, I'm definitely going for RAID, not just a single disk. I just wanted to get thoughts and feedback on Seagate, especially constellation users. So definitely also it won't be 1TB total as well.

Hmmm, will look into WD Black. Thanks.

Get a wd re4 1tb lah as it is a good buy now, around RM320 only when i purchase last yr from KL.

I saw it in Lowyat Plaza in one of the shops a while back when only brand like Synology was around. Have not been there recently to check. Price list also don't mention it now.

Tried garage sales yet?
Why buy WD RE4? That's more for RAID.

Buy WD Black and you still get 5 years plus cheaper at RM 450 for 2TB.
*
RE4 definitely has a higher tolerance for vibration as its meant to be operated 24/7 in close proximity to tons of other drives. BTW, maybe will run raid in future too after got spare money to get one more unit of re4 tongue.gif

While some user complaint high pitched noise coming from the wd black drive, but not from WD RE4
