Once there was a hang, most likely associated with overheating. However, I repeatedly drove large data arrays back and forth (a lot of small files, a large total weight) and this happened only 1 time. The SSD itself is significantly smaller than it appears in the pictures. It has a beautiful light indication that reflects operations with it (blinks differently depending on what is being done with it). It is objectively expensive, but it is the only solution on the market with such speed and for such money.
