QuestionCan this drive be used vertically - on its edge rather than flat on the table? Does it come with some kind of base that ensures it is stable in that position? If used flat, can another identical drive be stacked on top of it?
Asked 2 years ago by Visorvet.
- Answer There is no base for vertical, I wouldn't recommend it. I'm not sure but think it will be alright to stack another drive when flat.

QuestionIs the enclosure metal or plastic, and can it be opened to replace the drive when the time comes as with my older G-Drives?
Asked 2 years ago by Visorvet.
- Answer The enclosure is metal. I’ve never attempted to open it, since I buy new hd’s when one is filled. An excellent product that I recommend without hesitation.
