Unsatisfied External SSD

I was very happy to get Netac Portable SSD 500GB USB3.2 Gen2 10Gbps Type C PSSD Read Speed up to 500MB/s External SSD and using my iPad-Pro as external SSD to use File storage/easy transfer of files (mostly images/photos) from iPad to PC. The first thing that was a little annoying is that it overheats very quickly and stops working / throws an error message and it takes a very long time. lot of time and effort to get it working again. It's advertised as faster than faster, advanced data transfer. In my experience it is "so fast that" there is not enough time to register files properly: 1 . "Faster than faster": I have to repeat the file transfer twice and hope they save, sometimes even that doesn't work and some files don't upload/transfer properly.2. "Advanced" : Sometimes files are transferred but cropped: 2-3 images are cropped and combined into one (mostly corrupted and unusable)3. Even though it looks like the files are transferred to the Netac 500GB Portable SSD without any problems, I still can't open some of them on the PC. Finally, all my file folders together with the service folders weigh 106 GB, in the properties of the Z Slim drive it shows "108 GB free 465 GB", which makes the capacity of the portable SSD Netac 500 GB (106 GB + 108 GB) 214 UK power! I think that's unacceptable. Conclusion: the product is unreliable, it is inconvenient to use, there are a lot of minuses, the description is misleading (if you do not use stronger words). I would not recommend buying
