Evaluation 5
Advantages: price quality
Disadvantages: 3.0 is often turned on only after restarting the computer (or after “re-plugging” the HDD), and with the usual power-on 2.0
Comment: The problem is rather in win8, there was no such thing on win7, and this, I think, is related to the change in the principle of inclusion in win8, or the fact that for my laptop the driver curves on win8. Other hard drives have the same problem.
