Oyen Digital Novus External HDD Reviews

A nice, big, fat hard drive

By William
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-07-16

This is just what I needed. It have several video projects all going on at once and wanted to back them up in one place with room to grow. 18 TB should do the trick.

Can't beat this value.

It's a solid well built drive. The rubber sleeve provides good protection from any accidental knocks or bumps. Transfer speeds and performance are what you would expect from an enterprise level hard drive. Also really like that it comes with both C-C and C-A USB cables.

is the voltage power adapter 110-220 ?
Asked by: Gary
The Oyen Digital 6TB Novus is manufactured for US consumption, and as data is precious it is highly recommended to use this drive with an international converter. That being said, the power adapter is 100-240 VAC.

When the descriptions say it is Thunderbolt 3 ...

When the descriptions say it is Thunderbolt 3 compatible, does that mean the transfer speed will be 40Gbps? Or does it mean you can plug it into a Thunderbolt 3 drive on a mac but it's max speed is 10Gbps?
Asked by: Anonymous
Hi, the chipset supports up to 10Gbps and is compatible with Thunderbolt 3 and USB. Keep in mind, a spinning hard drive will not be able to achieve either 10Gbps or 40Gbps due to the limits of a spinning disk. Peak speed will be around 225 MB/sec. Thanks! Oyen Digital Support
