Truly fast for an HDD!
Though my internal drives in my computer and the portable external drives I use are SSD drives, I still use mechanical hard drives for RAIDs, long-term storage, and backup. I bought this drive for backing up my photo shoots which average about 600-800GB. Many of the other drives I've used top out at about 150MB-175MB/s when writing image files from my portable SSD drives. This drive, however, consistently writes at a bit above 200MB/s. This may not seem like a lot, but it really is because it shortens my backup time. If you don't realize it, SSDs are NOT good for long-term storage. Though they are stable for the relatively short term, any long-term archiving should be written to HDD media.This is an excellent mechanical HDD. I've always had good luck with Toshiba X300 drives, but this is the first time I have purchased the 8TB capacity.

I bought these drive as used from other vendors. Tunny LLC to be exact. I bought 1 of these used. It came, looked and functioned like new. I ordered another and it was defective out of the box. It sounded like a washing machine. I sent it back and received another. This one is bad too. I am half way through testing it. It has so many bad sectors. Plus I have a red error light on on my RAID case. Gonna have to toss this one. I need to buy another, but I will buy it new.

Short lifespan, early failures, horrible customer service, worse RMA process

2 years and one drive has already completely died. Extremely slow read/write speeds. I was using this for applications and gaming and game load times was taking forever. I went through normal troubleshooting procedures; format, defrag; chkdisk; third party scan tools and finally the Toshiba Storage Diagnostic Tool which revealed (shown in the image). Opened a request with Toshiba and was informed to send the drive to them for RMA.
That was roughly 6 weeks ago at the time of writing. As others have outlined in their feedback, the drive went missing on their end despite my tracking showing it arrived the next day (I'm a 5 minute drive from the Canadian Toshiba HQ near Mississauga). After complaining I was informed it was send to the USA and takes 4 weeks to clear customs (evidentially Toshiba doesn't have a shipment broker...) but after complaining more, it was instantly received the next day.
Now I'm waiting for their credit process. I reached out 3 days ago and was informed "You should get it by May 20th". The item was received on April 23rd. A month to process a return. 6 weeks to handle a shipment and a week to get everything setup. Longest RMA process with zero customer feedback along the way.
Stick to a reputable hard drive brand
