Very good93/100
An HDD with 8 TBytes of storage space is tempting. But the high price is a deterrent. For 600 euros, the private individual can get two HDDs with 6 TBytes each.

With the new He8 models, HGST is once again bringing some momentum to the hard drive sector and, similar to Seagate with their Archive HDD, is gradually approaching the 10 TB limit. Particularly worthy of mention here is the diversity of choice, as the right HUH model can be selected depending on the planned area of use...
Good77/100
With 8 GB, the HGST Ultrastar He8 is not only one of the largest hard drives tested, but also one of the best. It has good transfer rates, works very quietly and the access times are also acceptable. However, the price is high and the practical performance is rather poor.
