Complete disappointment, the product is not at all what I imagined.

I strongly recommend against using these discs.
The write buffer is enough for a maximum of 30GB, after which the speed drops to ZERO.
absolutely not suitable for backups.
for torrents - a big question, an attempt to download BDRip or 4k of a decent amount will simply clog up all the resources of the disk subsystem.
the rating is not even zero, it is negative. I will try to return the wheels under warranty.

Pros
