Toshiba's mobile mechanical hard disk, I have bought 1TB before, and the quality is quite good, so this time I directly bought the larger capacity BASICS new Xiaohei A5 mobile hard disk 4TB version, which can store more things.
This portable hard drive is available in 1TB, 2TB and 4TB versions, so you can choose reasonably according to your needs. There are a lot of files like me that need to be stored, especially if there are a large number of graphic files and ** materials that need to be stored, it is recommended to enter the 4TB version directly. Moreover, Toshiba is also a well-known brand, and the product itself provides a 3-year warranty, which must be more reliable, and the advanced technology of the original factory is also more reassuring.
The outer surface of Toshiba's new small black A5 mobile mechanical hard drive is matte black, which is calm and full of security, and is more resistant to dirt than glossy materials, and is not easy to leave fingerprints. And the friction of the shell is also large enough to the touch, which is safer when you hold it. This hard drive is enclosed as a whole, tightly sealed, and the workmanship is quite good.

On the side of the indicator is its interface, which uses USB 30 protocol, also known as USB 32 Gen 1, which can provide faster read and write speeds, and will be more efficient when editing ** files. It's USB 3The 2 Gen1 high-speed interface is also backward compatible with USB 20 devices, even on old desktops in the office, can read and write. I am satisfied with both the read and write speed and the adaptability.
This is its accessory, which is a data cable, one end is a micro B type, and the other end is a standard USB-A type. Many large-capacity mobile hard disks require additional power supply to work properly, and the new Xiaohei A5 mobile hard disk uses USB power supply, which can be done by connecting to the computer with a matching data cable, which is very convenient for outdoor use.
As a dual-machine party, its system compatibility is also a key factor for me to consider. The Toshiba A5 portable hard drive is compatible with Windows 81. Windows10, Windows11 and Apple's macOS and other systems, the file format is NTFS, which can be plug-and-play under the Windows system, without additional power supply and other software. After formatting the hard drive, it can be used normally under macOS system, which is much more convenient with my MacBook Air.

After connecting the computer, you can see that the free space of this hard drive is 36TB, the available space is still very sufficient.
Simply run down the benchmark with HD Tune Pro. After actual measurement, its read speed curve decreases in a smooth curve, and the overall performance is relatively stable, indicating that the quality of the hard disk is still very good.
According to the old rule, use software to measure your speed. In the AS SSD benchmark test, the sequential write speed of the new Xiaohei A5 mobile hard drive is 11251MB s with a sequential read speed of 13228mb/s。
Tested with CrystalDiskMark, it was measured to have a sequential write speed of 161MB s and a sequential read speed of 1484mb/s。That's about the same as USB 30 The highest rate of mechanical mobile hard disks.
Then there was the TXBENCH test, which measured the sequential write speed of the Toshiba A5 portable hard drive to be 1275mb s with a sequential read speed of 139At 6MB s, the performance is also quite good.
Next, the file read and write speed is measured. I transferred some of the ** materials in the computer to the Toshiba A5 mobile hard drive, and I can see that its write speed is almost kept at about 143MB s, the write speed is still good, and the speed curve is basically stable. The noise and temperature of the hard drive are also very well controlled during file transfer.
