Transcend StoreJet 25M3 1 TB External USB 3.0 HDD Review

Transcend StoreJet 25M3 1 TB External USB 3.0 HDD Testing:

HD Tune Pro 4.6 HD Tune Pro measures disk performance to make comparisons between drives or disk controllers. In the Pro 4.6 version, the user can measure not only drive performance as a whole but test the access speed and CPU usage as well.

USB 3.0 clearly helps the StoreJet 25M3 here as it performs quite well for being a 5400 RPM laptop drive. The full 7200 RPM drive it is compared to here is faster but not so much that it would be very noticeable when used as a backup drive.
