I will replace it. Until I get a new device to test and use I have to leave negative feedback. The drive makes a "reel whistle" when writing files and has a terrible write speed in the 32k to 256k range. See also the attached photo. If the replacement works correctly I will revisit this review. UPDATE: Hard drive replacement suffers from the same issue. I get a refund and order a different brand. avoid it
