Alternatively, why aren't they all so small?
Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* Less than 4" x 1 1/4" x 1/3".

Is it a real HDD, a spinner, with a rotating platter?Â*Â* It calls it a
harddrive more than once, and never uses SSD, etc. but it's so small.

What about that it has no brand name?Â* Would you buy it for a backup
drive?


For file backup, is a real 2.5" external drive better for backup?
external 2.5" HDD, SSD, 3.5" HDD in a dock


No, not a spinner, some kind of SSD crammed into a small aluminum body
The brand name of that one is 'Aitaton'Â* I see a lot of similar ones
on Amazon.
I don't know how good they are as I have never used one, Also not
enough info to make an informed guess.

Should have mentioned, something looks fishy about the price for a 1 TB
drive.

Yes.
No way is it real.

It'll be like those 1TB thumb drive scams.
