I have been using this model for over 2 years. No problem. There is no overheating. Purely for backup or archive, the ideal solution. Not for daily use, although read and write speeds are good. If the cluster size is 4096 (the smallest), the write speed is 10-15 megabytes per second. I set the cluster size to 1 megabyte, the write speed increased to 120 megabytes per second.
