I'm a digital artist so I load and unload a lot of data from a drive like this and one of the things I noticed early on was that it wasn't indexed properly and although the program I'm using I could see files, Windows couldn't. Then I noticed that although both connections are strong, the laptop I'm using keeps dropping connection making it completely unreliable and very frustrating. I will try to return.
