Which brand of portable hard drive is better? How much does it cost?

First, in terms of theoretical quality, Samsung's is slightly worse than Hitachi, but it is not much worse, on the other hand, Samsung's market share far exceeds Hitachi, accounting for 55% of the market. Relatively speaking, the after-sales service is better, and Samsung's second-class dealers can also provide three-year (silver) and five-year (gold) free replacement services. Hitachi can only provide a three-year free warranty by Level 1**, and downstream sellers only promise consumers a one-year warranty and a three-year warranty.

However, Samsung's ** system is relatively chaotic and changes frequently, which may not be good news for consumers.

Second, as far as ** is concerned, Hitachi is currently slightly higher than Samsung, about 5-10 yuan higher than the same specification. However, the market segmentation of the two is very different. Samsung currently has 120G, 160G, 250G, 320G, 500G specifications, all of which are 5400rpm, 8M-CACH, SATS port, IDE products have basically withdrawn from the market.

Hitachi currently has 120gsata, 160gide, 200gsata, 250gsata, 320gsata, all of which are 5400rpm and 8m-cach; Hitachi also offers 160 GSATA, 250 GSATA and 320 GSATA at 7200 rpm. Hitachi 500gsata hard drives are also in production, but they belong to the thick disk series and cannot be used as portable hard disks in standard hard disk enclosures.

3. For the two brands, 80g and 120g have been discontinued, so even if they are still sold on the market, the two will not be much lower than 160g, and even higher, it is worth mentioning that the single disc used in the current 80g, 120g and 160g products is the same, which means that there is no essential difference in the production cost of the three.

Fourth, it needs to be clarified: Hitachi and Samsung currently do not have original mobile hard disks in the market, such as Hitachi original, Hitachi NESO, Samsung Golden Diamond, Golden Apple, Thunder King, Earl Kim, etc., are imitation, counterfeit products, the counterfeit listed on the product packaging, are made of silver, are not Samsung or Hitachi, careful users may find that even some of Samsung's counterfeit ** is the same as Hitachi, hehe, like Samsung Hitachi and other large factories, We will not entrust a third-party organization to provide such services, so the end result is that the quality of the original mobile hard drive you buy is not as good as the assembled one. Unbelief?

Come to my store, and I will assemble a so-called original portable hard drive for you on the spot.

Fifth, I have to mention Samsung Jin General and Jinbao, ** Jin General is a Samsung mobile hard disk provided by Beijing Jinjienuo, this product right and can be called a licensed Samsung mobile hard disk, but it is also an exaggeration to call it original, because the warranty of the product is not provided by Samsung, and it cannot enjoy the same five-year national warranty service as Samsung Jinbao hard disk. In addition, Samsung only provides Jinbao hard disk, that is, the gold disk, and there is no Jinbao mobile hard disk on the market at present, you can do it yourself.

The brand rankings above: Samsung, Newman, Lenovo, Yijie, Maxtor.
