Title: Sifting through the data
Review: I have accumulated a multitude of thumb drives and portable hard drives of various sizes. I have told myself I would like to use only one drive to search for data instead of plugging one and then another to find the necessary files.I decided to buy a large drive and consolidate the files on one drive. I did purchase this drive and have started the process. It’s great.

Title: LOUD (and now dead)
Review: As of 3/16/2025, this hard drive no longer works and is not recognized by windows. Do not buy this hard drive under any circumstances. If I could give zero stars, I would.I haven’t heard a hard drive this loud since the days of Windows XP. I’ve only had it running since last week so I cant judge it’s reliability but I have a sinking feeling I might have to update this. It’s not exactly confidence inspiring so I’ve only kept larger files like games on it because I can easily re-download those. Giving it 2 stars because there’s no excuse for this when my 10 year old WD blue’s are near whisper silent.

Review: A note if you please , once formatted for windows you will end up with just over 9TB ( 9.09 TB ) . Remember this isn’t a Product issue its how windows stores its data ( NTFS ) there is actually a full 10TB on the disk if using a different disk format eg ( FAT32) but due to its very large size its better to use NTFS as this reduces Fragmentation of large files . I use mine for a Game drive for my very large Steam game folder which is now Nearly 1400 games and so far it works perfectly .

Review: Die Festplatte ist schnell und läuft auch ruhig.Nur unregelmäßig gibt es klicken oder klacken der Lese-Schreibköpfe, auch ohne dass bewusst mit kopieren oder schreiben auf die HDD zugegriffen wird. Das kann nerven, besonders wenn man nicht weiß warum!Ist dieses Klick-Geräusch normal?

Review: Der sehr gute Preis hat anscheinend auch Nachteile. Ich habe die HDD ca. eine Woche für meine Film und Serienmediathek im Einsatz. Bereits jetzt hat die HDD enorme Error-Raten. Ich habe zwar 4 Jahre Garantie zusätzlich gekauft, jedoch bezweifle ich ob meine Daten überhaupt noch bis dahin überleben werden.
