About Hardware SanDisk MicroSDHC 4GB

The SanDisk MicroSDHC 4GB Class 4 is a small yet powerful flash memory card designed specifically for devices such as cell phones, digital cameras, music players and other electronic devices that support the microSDHC format. With a capacity of 4GB, this card is enough to store hundreds of photos, dozens of songs, a few short videos, and lightweight applications - making it an ideal solution for everyday storage needs, especially on previous generation devices.

As a Class 4 memory card, this microSD guarantees a minimum write speed of 4MB/s, enough to handle standard activities such as recording SD videos, saving camera shots, or loading application data on mobile devices. SanDisk's proven flash memory technology makes this card resistant to shock, vibration, and light to moderate wear conditions, suitable for field use as well as for personal multimedia collections.

In performance testing using a VENTION USB 3.0 card reader (with GL3224 controller) connected to a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 laptop (Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, 12GB DDR4 dual-channel RAM), the benchmark results showed consistent performance and within its class specifications. Through CrystalDiskMark, the card recorded read speeds of 19.50 MB/s and write speeds of 5.66 MB/s. Meanwhile, in the Cross Platform Disk Test, the read speed reached 18.71 MB/s with a write of 4.16 MB/s.

To ensure authenticity and actual capacity, verification was also done using H2testw, which showed satisfactory results: read speeds of 18.8 MB/s and write speeds of 4.51 MB/s with no sector errors or damage to its 4GB capacity. This confirms that this memory card is not only genuine, but also functional and stable to use for important data storage.

With stable performance, enough capacity for lightweight needs, and a very affordable price, the SanDisk MicroSDHC 4GB Class 4 remains a relevant choice for users who need simple, durable, and power-efficient additional storage, especially on older devices or as a portable backup medium.

About Hardware TOSHIBA MK6459GSXP

The TOSHIBA MK6459GSXP is a 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) with a storage capacity of 640GB, designed specifically for small laptops, notebooks and external enclosures. It uses a 3Gbps SATA interface and operates at a rotational speed of 5400 RPM, providing a balance between power efficiency and stable performance for daily computing needs such as document storage, media, and light application use.

With 8MB of cache support, the TOSHIBA MK6459GSXP is able to provide quite good data response for the conventional HDD class. While not as fast as a solid-state drive (SSD), it is still an economical and reliable storage solution, especially for users who prioritize large capacity in a compact form factor. It can be used as a primary or secondary drive for data backup, media collection storage, and general productivity needs.

Based on the test results on the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i device using the Orico USB 3.0 enclosure, the drive recorded read speeds of 90.15 MB/s and write speeds of 90.76 MB/s in the CrystalDiskMark test. Meanwhile, in the ATTO Disk Benchmark (64MB data block), it recorded read speeds of 70.20 MB/s and write speeds of 88.28 MB/s. These results show that the TOSHIBA MK6459GSXP is capable of delivering consistent data transfer performance, making it an ideal choice for users who need a large-capacity storage solution at an affordable price.

With Toshiba brand quality and long-term reliability, the MK6459GSXP remains relevant as a 2.5-inch HDD storage option that is power-efficient, robust, and compatible with a wide range of modern and legacy devices.
