Our tests involved checking the transfer speed, the access times, cache space, and failure rate. We have researched the market for the best 2TB hard drives and used each of them to find out if they really stood up to the features that they were marketed with. Next time, I'll go with a more premium brand if I can still find TLC in it.Best 2TB Internal Hard Drive What You Can Buy For Your Laptop, Desktop Or PS3 / PS4Īre you looking for a perfect 2TB hard drive for a laptop or desktop? You may come across a number of options but knowing which ones are the best can help you narrow down your choices to those that are most reliable.
I haven't tried a huge write test beyond what Crystal Disk Mark does, but it can read for 15 minutes straight and stay fast. But once it was done and the background reads and writes were over, disk tests were back to normal and copying huge directories was normal. I backed out of encryption, which took forever. Running disk tests during this showed horrible results. Lots of fiddling with it past that had no effect. Putting a heatsink of it changed that to 21 MB/s with bursts of 200 MB/s. This drive on the other hand started out at about 170 MB/s then slowed to 17 MB/s with little bursts of 60 MB/s every 10 seconds or so. I have my doubts that it's really TLC.Įncrypting my whole Sabrent NVMe with Bitlocker was fast, proceeding about 350 MB/s This drive is also 2 tb, but it's composed of only two chips, a small driver chip and a relatively small flash chip. Overall Review: I have a 2 tb sabrent tlc NVMe drive - it has chips covering two sides of an m.2 2280 board.
runs a bit hot, but even when taken apart and a supplied with a heatsink, that doesn't fix it getting overwhelmed and slow by very much. Apparently can't handle heavy reading and writing at the same time Pros: - works properly under most conditionsĬons: - When doing initial bitlocker encryption or whole disk decryption, slows to about 20 MB/s with short bursts of faster activity every 10 seconds or so.
