are these still good for burning xbox back ups at 2x speed?

I highly recommend 4x speed for burning xbox games with these discs. it all varys on your burner as well cause these have the capability to burn 8x but never do 8x or it will cause errors in burning the discThanks,AUSTIN

Yeah they're fine for 2x, but if their MK-003 then you should do 4x not 2x.

Yes! that is exactly what I did, but you will only get USB 2.0 speeds I haven't had any problems with mine.

I run 4 of them right now with one slot empty in between them and it will run without a fan.However, these seem to dip to 1.4 GHash/s after awhile (even with a fan). Could be my USB hub. Seems fine if restarted.

per apricorn specs: the x1 has data transfer speeds up to 400 MB/sec*..the x2 up tp 550 MB. Depends on your need and whether or not you want to tie up your only x16 slot.Also you need to look at where it will fit in your case. Hope this helps

Do not know...I don't have anything over 2TB in my system. You probably want to contact Thermaltake directly before purchasing....

I would use nothing BUT these drives in anything I built or upgraded. They're a bit pricier, and no one ever thinks about it, but the warranty on THESE hard drives, the WD Black series, is a full 5Y. VERY few other mfrs even offer a 5y warranty. And WD drives earn that warranty reputation, I haven't had a WD drive fail, EVER. In each case -- over a dozen -- they've become useless through increasing capacity, never mechanical/electronic failure. That is, I probably have an 80gig WD drive that's still functioning. It's just not worth plugging in and taking up a SATA channel when I can get that capacity on a freaking flash drive nowadays... Yes, they're that good. You can "save money" by buying something cheaper. But you'll pay in the long run with headaches from lost data, or time spent rebuilding your windows/software/os and tweaking it back to the way you had it. The HD is the soul of your machine. Everything else fails, you can practically swap a part back in and you're up and running. But the HD fails and you've got a multiday to longer term headache to get things back to "normal". And, for general purposes, they're among the best drives in performance terms, too. Tom's Hardware may rate something else marginally faster, but not by much. And not by enough to drag you away from WD Black. As the old saw goes, once you go Black, you'll never go back. :-D

Yes, I have a Samsung burner, and these disks work fine. I burn at the 4x rate.

If Carbonite is working for you I'd say stick with it. Having offsite backup is a good idea since it's unaffected should you have a house fire, flood, etc. As I said my review, I have serious issues with the speed of this drive. Backing up 1GB of data took well over an hour. By comparison, I was able to download the 4GB Mountain Lion update in just about an hour, on the same network, and both via wifi. Other reviewers have mentioned speed issues as well, so if you are concerned about possible problems I'd say that's the biggest possible one.

I'm running this drive on ACHI, so yea, it works. ACHI says its only running at 1.5 GB/s when it should be 3 GB/s for my motherboard and the drive clearly supports up to 6GB/s but it doesn't really matter since you'll pretty much never go too far over 200 MB/s with one of these drives.

they only have 1 thunderbolt port and 1 usb you might be able to daisy chain with the USB but not at thunderbolt speeds and I wouldnt use them that way. theyre consumer drives but they work well.

I haven't noticed any decrease in performance between the powered 3.0 drive and the 2.0 flash drives I have plugged into this hub. They work at their rated speed for the most part. For the most part the computer's controller chip and the device controller work those issues out unless there bad programming involved

Absolutely not, I purchased 2 of these. Sent them both back. I think they're useless because they wont play burnt discs.

I bought 2 of those. One never worked. The other one warms up when transfering medium size file. I am sur that 64kb of data will jam and burn that little device.

No. Get something more reliable like a WD BLUE OR BLACK (black is better) This drive failed on me after only 4 months in my Xbox 360. I replaced it with a 360mb WD black after a lot of careful research.

Yes however it's a little picky as far as media as almost all burners are. 25gb same thing as far as burning times much of that depends what your machine, I run an AMD 8 core with 32 gb ram two Raptor hd 10000 raid and burns very quickly.
