About Hardware TOSHIBA MK6465GSXN

The TOSHIBA MK6465GSXN is a thick 2.5-inch hard disk with 640GB of storage capacity, designed to meet the needs of laptops and external storage devices. This HDD uses a SATA II (3.0 Gbps) interface and operates at a rotational speed of 5400 RPM, resulting in a blend of power efficiency and storage capacity large enough for everyday needs.

Equipped with an 8MB cache buffer, the TOSHIBA MK6465GSXN is capable of handling light tasks such as storing documents, multimedia files, and running simple applications. Although its read and write speeds are not as fast as modern SSDs, this HDD is still a reliable and cost-effective storage solution, especially for users of older laptops or HDD-based systems that are still in good working order.

Physically, the drive typically uses two platters and four heads, which is common in mid-capacity HDDs like the 640GB. The drive also performed quite stably in speed testing, using the CrystalDiskMark application, the Hard Drive achieved a sequential read of 92.45 MB/s and a sequential write of 86.30 MB/s, depending on system conditions and data fragmentation.

Tests were conducted using an HP 1000 1b05au Laptop using a DVD Slot (HDD Caddy) and for CrystalDiskMark testing using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 Laptop using a USB 3.0 HDD Enclosure, thus reflecting real performance in everyday usage scenarios. With the combination of large capacity and low power consumption, TOSHIBA MK6465GSXN is an ideal choice for users who want large-capacity internal storage without sacrificing power efficiency, such as for data backup, multimedia files, or secondary operating systems.

About Hardware Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB

The Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB is a portable storage solution designed to provide an optimal combination of speed, reliability and affordability. With a 32GB capacity, this flash drive is perfect for storing important documents, photos, videos, and lightweight presentation files and installers, making it an ideal choice for students, office employees, and casual users.

Using a USB 3.0 interface, the Lexar V100 is able to provide better read and write speeds than traditional USB 2.0 flash drives. While it still supports backward compatibility with USB 2.0 ports, using it on a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port will maximize its performance. Its compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry around, while its cap cover helps keep the USB connector protected from dust and damage.

This flash drive speed test was conducted using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 device, powered by an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, supported with 12GB DDR4 dual channel RAM, and running Windows 11 version 22H2 operating system. The combination of these specifications provides a stable and representative testing environment to assess the actual performance of the flash drive under test.

In tests using the CrystalDiskMark application, the flash drive was able to record read speeds of up to 143.53 MB/s, while write speeds reached 34.33 MB/s. These results reflect quite good performance for daily use such as moving documents, images, or medium-sized media files.

Meanwhile, through additional testing using ATTO Disk Benchmark with a block size of 64MB, the flash drive showed a read speed of 140.66 MB/s and a write speed of 25.04 MB/s. Slightly lower write performance in ATTO compared to CrystalDiskMark is common, as the test methods used by each benchmark can produce varying results depending on the type of data and block size used.

Overall, this flash drive offers a fairly high read performance for its class, although the write speed is moderate. For users looking for a portable storage solution for daily data transfer purposes, this flash drive remains reliable with consistent performance across various scenarios.

The read speed of close to 140MB/s shows that this flash drive is responsive enough for activities such as opening large files or playing videos directly from USB. However, the lower write speed (below 40MB/s) reflects the reasonable limitations of economy-class flash drives without DRAM cache.

Technically, the Lexar V100 uses the PF619-32AR NAND chip and ZC3281 controller, a common configuration for low-cost and power-efficient flash drives. Although TBW (Total Bytes Written) and DRAM cache specifications are not available, Lexar remains a trusted brand in the digital storage world, with a good reputation for manufacturing quality and system compatibility.

With a simple design, decent read speed, and competitive price, the Lexar JumpDrive V100 32GB is one of the best choices for users who need a cheap and reliable USB 3.0 flash drive for daily use.
