I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

It would be nice to have a set of stylish stickers to mark discs. Optimally, such as were once attached to my "diplomat": a plastic film black square, on which in a metallized "golden" frame were paired metallized "golden" letters.
Yes, in principle, anything can be depicted, if only in one black and gold "glossy style" and in a pair (for a disk and for a Europlug connector)
﻿

Pros

I have been working with External HDD Western for a long time. I have (different) more than 20 of them. The first one was bought in 2022. So far, none have failed. True, completely identical disks may not connect to the computer at the same time, although there are no problems with them separately. I think WIN 10 is to blame here. Gradually replaced all working disks from 2 TB to 4 TB. There are no problems with connection.

Cons

The wires on the drives are ill-conceived. The Europlug power connector in the last (your) drive is again wide, which does not allow you to plug two connectors into adjacent extension sockets. They began to make the USB 3.0 cable shorter by 20 cm. So, disks that are far from the computer have to be connected to it through an extension cord.
