In the digital age, the pursuit of high-resolution images and the pursuit of high-resolution video require us to enhance our storage devices to keep pace with the times.
As a storage carrier, the 2.5-inch mobile hard disk has always been one of the choices, and due to its small size and portability, it is a must-have companion for home travel.
This trial was fortunate enough to get the trial of the Seagate Backup Plus Ultra Slim, which made me less prosperous storage space.
The Chinese name of this mobile hard disk is: Seagate to Lite Li portable portable hard disk (in front of a lot of adjectives ah). Seagate is a veteran hard drive vendor and everyone is familiar with it without introducing it. This time, the Ultra Slim series mobile hard disk is obviously to be highlighted as “thinâ€: 9.6 mm in thickness, USB 3.0 (compatible with 2.0) connection, and 1TB and 2TB capacity. This trial is 1TB.
=====================
Unpacking and appearanceThe color of the package is basically red on a white background. The most prominent is the word "ultra slim". The point of purchase for this product is super thin!
The upper right corner is marked with the capacity: 1TB; there is a OneDrive in the lower left corner, which can provide 200GB cloud storage, but it may be a bit trickier to use it on the mainland.
One side leaked out of the mobile hard disk body, of course, is still protected by a transparent plastic shell. At the bottom of the package are hard disk models and SN and PN codes. In addition, four small mouths are opened at the bottom. This gives birth to four "shanks". The packaging is very easy to stand up without falling. The design of the packaging is still a lot.
Easy to "stand up" The top of the box is marked with a warranty of three years.
On the back there are various language introductions, with an emphasis on the 200GB cloud storage space that comes with the state.
There are security seals on the top and bottom, don't be afraid to buy second-hand goods.
Written on the side of the package is online shopping? Google play has not played in the motherland.
Open the package and first come out with a removable hard drive protected by a plastic case and the instructions say.
Open the plastic box, the hard disk is placed diagonally
Take out the mobile hard disk, you can see there is a USB3.0 data cable at the bottom
Seagate's original USB 3.0 cable
USB3.0 Micro USB interface
The front surface of the mobile hard disk is made of metal and has a round concave surface. The arrangement of the six-pointed star is made to make the appearance special and full of design sense. It is also impressive, and it can also play a non-slip effect while holding the Feeling good, there is a kind of evaluation of the feeling of the phone?
There is a hard disk indicator in the corner, a special "one" word, a kind of blinding feeling.
In the other corner is Seagate's new logo, which is called the "Living" logo.
The back of the hard drive is made of plastic material. It also has a concave design. It should be a part of Seagate's logo. It is a bit like "S," and the agreement can also play a non-slip effect. In the lower right corner, there is the model number and serial number of the mobile hard disk.
The size of the mobile hard disk is 113.5*76*9.6mm, which is indeed very thin. Generally, the thickness of the SSD is also about 7mm. This mobile hard disk is only slightly thicker.
The four corners of the removable hard disk have chamfers.
Connected to the USB, a white light of the one-line type lights up, compared to the circular light, not dazzling, very elegant feeling.
========================
applicationOpen the hard disk, found that there are three files, PDF is the warranty description, there is a setup file, but it is actually a link, you can download more than 140 MB installation files after registration, Seagate Dashboard is installed.
OneDrive, that is, the 200GB network disk, but the link is open very slowly, I fill in the registration page, and then down to not work, do you want to use the wall?
Seagate Dashboard mainly has PC backup, mobile backup, social and restore capabilities.
The bottom left corner has add cloud function, of course, it is still difficult to connect.
In the upper right corner there is a pinion which is a setting function that allows you to select languages, view logs, update software, and more.
Click on the hard disk pattern on the left to see the hard disk information (serial number, firmware version), management (indicators, test, power management), support (product information, etc.)
PC backup function is to make a good plan (specify the specific need to back up the PC file), click on the protection immediately, after connecting to the computer to start the backup, this feature will be more useful in the work, you can back up important files .
And mobile devices, such as mobile phones, can also be backed up. If the phone captures any important pictures or videos, it can also be immediately backed up. It is also a very useful feature. After all, mobile hard drives are much smaller and more portable than notebooks.
However, the Android system will go to Google play to download the app. The reason you know is very troublesome. Perhaps the official website will have this app, but if you don't look for it, you will not try this feature.
This social function is actually good, but it can only be used for facebook, flickr, and youtube. It is of little use in the mainland of the motherland. It is indeed a pity that there is no localization.
Finally there is a restore function.
=========================
Performance TestingIf there is no comparison, there will be no harm. Find two other mobile hard drives, three mobile hard disks to participate in the game and the parameters are as follows (the order from left to right in the following figure):
Seagate Ultra slim capacity 1TB, USB3.0 interface, speed 5400RPM''
Western Digital TOURO Mobile capacity 2TB, USB3.0 interface, speed 5200RPM;
Seagate 2.5-inch hard disk + storage bus mobile hard disk box capacity of 320GB, USB3.0 interface, speed 5400RPM;
In addition, 2TB, 320GB are all hard drives in use. There are things inside and there is no way to remove them, so it may affect the test results. There was a long time no check, 320GB warned
In terms of thickness, 2TB is the thickest; in terms of length, 320GB is the longest. The Seagate Ultra slim is undoubtedly "short" and "thin"
3 hard disk information
First test with HD Tune
The picture may be a bit small, can not see the data, a chart summary:
Seagate Ultra slim has the highest read transfer speed, but its performance on access time and random storage lags behind.
FastCopy_3.26 testAfter all, mobile hard disk is basically still copy files, so the test of FastCopy_3.26 is very close to the actual application. We chose the 10GB size file of Gudao 3 game. Because there are many small files, we test the scattered small files.
The speed of 3 hard disks is 66.3/85.3/53.5MB/s, TOURO Mobile (2TB) has the highest speed
Also choose a 10G 3D movie file, retest the transmission speed of large files.
The speed of 3 hard drives is 120.9/95.4/49.5MB/S, and Seagate Ultra slim (1TB) has the highest speed
It seems that there is specialization in the surgical industry. Seagate Ultra slim will have faster transmission speed for large files; Western Digital TOURO Mobile has advantages for transmission of small files. The 2.5-inch hard disk of the old model and the new hard disk with a single disk of 1TB still has a significant gap.
==================
to sum upThe design of this Ultra Slim mobile hard disk is very hard, full of design and anti-slip function, and the Seagate logo is also integrated into it. It's really beautiful! Although the thickness of 9.6 mm is still slightly thicker than mainstream SSD drives, it can be said to be an ultra-thin product in HDD products, and its portability is excellent.
At the same time this product also began to focus on the software link, provides some software application services, backup function or a more practical function.
However, this part of the service has apparently not yet been localized. Cloud storage and social functions have no practical significance in the mainland of the motherland. Obviously, consumers in mainland China cannot enjoy many of the software services provided by Seagate. It has to be said that this is a kind of service. Sorry.
