About this product
The SimpleTech 320GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive offers 320 GB of storage capacity in a 3.5-inch form factor. This blue external drive operates at a rotation speed of 7200 RPM and connects via a USB interface. It is presented as a new, sealed product, making it suitable for general backup and storage needs.
Our take
This SimpleTech external hard drive provides 320 GB of storage, which is a decent amount for general backups or expanding an older system's storage. The 7200 RPM rotation speed is a positive, suggesting better performance than slower drives. However, the USB 2.0 interface will bottleneck these speeds, especially when transferring large files, making the high RPM less impactful. Its 3.5-inch form factor means it's not as portable as smaller 2.5-inch drives and likely requires an external power adapter. At $49.99, it's a fair price for the capacity, but the dated interface is a significant drawback.
