Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works like a charm - weird stats though

Received on time, data pasted, copied and it worked perfectly. Strange: After I copied all the data to it (needs to do twice, which was about 6T records), the CrystalDiskInfo tool said the health was 96%, which could indicate a pretty sharp 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 the box itself was undamaged. Strange. Tip: there is a thin metal/hot melt sticker on the disc, but that alone may not be enough. Keep an eye out 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!
