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 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.
