    It works

    My holder said it would accept a 9.5mm drive, this drive fit , barely. Had to wiggle and then it slid it. Working as a Raid 1 mirrored drive.

    I would recommend this product to a friend!

    Great, Reliable HDDs

    Have used Toshiba HDDs for several years now, and I have never been disappointed. Currently have four of these HDDs in a RAID array for data backups. Highly recommend these drives.

    Thank you for sharing your fantastic experience with Toshiba HDDs! We're thrilled to hear that you've found them to be great and reliable, especially in your RAID setup for data backups. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we appreciate your loyalty over the years. Happy data storing!


    Always dependable storage!

    I’ve only had these HDDs for about three weeks, but they have been performing flawlessly. They are part of a RAID for Time Machine backups. I’ve also purchased four 4TB versions of these HDDs for another RAID array for another Mac for TM & Carbon Copy Cloner backups. They are also working great. Very satisfied!

    I would recommend this product to a friend!
