However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)

EX400U USB4 Drive
This drive lives up to its performance claims. The temps are well within range, about the same as my 990 Pro in a OWC Thunderbolt 5 enclosure. I use it as a Time Machine drive for my MacBook Pro M4 Pro (that stays docked most of the time) and it's performed perfectly. It out performs the other guys T7/T9 and X9/X10 drives by a wide margin. Also, no disconnects, it's there when it wakes up from sleep. Zero issues, definitely recommend it.

Wish this worked out.
The hard drive disconnected constantly and I ended up having to return it and get a Samsung hard drive, that worked perfectly. I love the idea of it being such a high speed but with out good software to maintain a connection it's not worth it.
