Works like a charm - weird stats but

Received on time, pasted, copied data in and it worked perfectly. The weird thing was, after copying all the data to it (needs to be done twice, which is about 6TB of written data), the CrystalDiskInfo tool said the health was 96%, indicating a pretty steep drop? Even more puzzling is that the tool claims the drive was powered on 1677 times. This would mean that I've been powering the drive off and on every 10 minutes since I've had it. It doesn't make any sense at all. The packaging was intact (all the usual stickers were on the box, and there was no damage to the box itself. Strange. Tip: there is a thin metal/hotmelt sticker on the disc, but that alone may not be enough. Keep an eye on the temperature at the beginning of your usage (e.g. with CrystalDiskInfo) if you start at 55 Β°C and even quickly reach 60 Β°C you have problems, consider adding a thermal pad and a cooler that immediately drops the temperature around 15-20Β°C and your device will thank you later!
