The quality is so-so, the price does not match the quality.

The first 6 months it works fine, the speed and temperature stink a little, the second 6 months they start to worry, after that it buzzes incessantly, and it already infuriates! It’s strange that I didn’t find such reviews here, I read about it before buying, everyone wrote about squeaking and buzzing, they say, the factory marriage of the series and all that.

Pros

Large volume, small price.

Cons

Noisy VERY! It constantly clicks and crackles. Over time, it begins to buzz incessantly. It gets very hot, up to 60 degrees, but in those. passport (downloaded from the site) this is a normal temperature, but the HDD check program is choking just from such a temperature. The speed is only 30 mb / s - but stable.
