2TB USB 3.0 with micro USB flashdrives trial

[Dicebat]

A buddy and I have tried and tested imported 2TB flash drives and they've been working like a charm. We're importing more and I was wondering if anyone here might be interested?

They'll go for around R899 each.

Can you fill the whole 2tb? Most of them is fakes.

Maybe provide a link?

 

[Dicebat]

We're in the process of puttting an e-commerce page together that will include some other tech and will post the link as soon as we go live.

We tested a 2TB 2.0 version and were able to fill it up with 1.9TB of data.

Were you able to get all 1.9TB off again? Intact?

 

[RoganDawes]

It would be good to hear the specs of the drives - write speed, read speed, iops, etc

Good question. Going to try it and let you know.

Write speed is pretty slow: up to 15 Mb/S - not too sure about the rest of the specs at this stage

 

[RoganDawes]

I trust that is 15MBps, not bits. :-O

Even that is pretty poor, at that rate, it will take more than 36 hours to fill the drive :-(

Flash drive or external hdd? What make is the hdd or flash chips?

 

[airborne]

I'd be keen for 2 at R899 if they are legit

 

[Dicebat]

Sup peeps.

Sorry for bumping this one, but I just thought I'd let you guys know. Thanks for the tools suggested in this thread to test and see if these flash drives are legit.

So the flashdrives have arrived and we put some of them through the tests. Unfortunately they turned out to be counterfeit, so I will not be selling them. (unless you really want one).

Read/write speeds are terrible but they do keep nearly 2TB of data on them. They even come in legit-looking Transcend packaging with their web address, warranty info etc on it. But it's fake.

It's a pity though. With both USB and Micro USB connections, it really got us excited.

Oh well...Sorry for wasting your time :/
