I bought a WD Blue 4TB HDD at Amazon.ca. $99.97 plus tax.
It is an upgrade of my desktop PC. This 4TB HDD replaced the old WD Blue 1TB and a 250GB SATA SSD.
The WD40EZAX has the following features.
- SATA 3 (6Gb/s)
- 5400 RPM
- CMR
- Cache Size 256M
- Transfer Rate 185MB/s
- 2 year limited warranty
I ran a performance benchmark test with Samsung Magician software.
- Sequential Read 210MB/s
- Sequential Write 202MB/s
- Random Read 244IOPS
- Random Write 732 IOPS
I hope it can work like its previous friend. The one I took down is WD10EZEX. It was made on July 19, 2015. Almost ten years old. Still in good condition. I put it in my PC server for temporary storage.
