About Hardware SanDisk Ultra MicroSDHC 8GB
The SanDisk Ultra MicroSDHC 8GB is an 8GB memory card that supports Class 10 UHS-I speeds, designed for everyday storage purposes such as storing photos, videos, or light files on mobile devices such as smartphones, digital cameras, or tablets. Although the capacity is relatively small by today's standards, this card is still useful for basic purposes or as backup media.
With a read speed of up to 80MB/s theoretically, this microSD card is enough to support HD video playback and light data transfer. However, the limited capacity makes it less suitable for storing large amounts of apps or multimedia files.
The test was conducted using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6 equipped with 12GB DDR4 Dual Channel RAM and Windows 11 22H2 operating system. The card was tested through a VENTION USB 3.0 Card Reader with a GL3224 controller connected to a USB 3.1 Gen 1 port.
Based on the test results with CrystalDiskMark, the read speed obtained was 46.70 MB/s and the write speed was 11.73 MB/s. Meanwhile, in the Cross Platform Disk Test, the read speed reached 40.87 MB/s and the write speed 8.02 MB/s. Although it does not reach the theoretical maximum performance, these results are quite representative for light daily use.
Device Test:
Device: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6
RAM: 12GB DDR4 3200MHz Dual Channel (8+4)
OS: Windows 11 22H2
USB: USB 3.1 Gen 1

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.
