4TB USB 3.0 Speed Test
Posted: March 27th, 2013, 1:05 pm
Tested with Seagate 4TB hard drive.
as you can see the USB 3.0 Speed in Mediasonic enclosure is in par with Seagate External hard drive.
In Windows 8 OS.
Renesas / NEC USB 3.0 Drivers from Microsoft Driver Version 6.2.9200.16420
*Note: When and if you take out the hard drive from the Seagate External Hard drive (WD also), you need to delete the partition and repartition in GTP
when you put into Mediasonic Enclosure. If you want to put back to Seagate External Drive, you need to delete the partition and repartition to MBR and then format again in Seagate Casing. Seagate used MBR partition and special format it so that it will work with Win XP. But in any other enclosure anything over 2TB it need to be in GTP partition.
