    Throttling issues with large file copies

    ​While this drive is compact and portable, I’ve been disappointed with its performance when transferring large files. It starts off fast, but the transfer speed drops significantly after a few gigabytes. If you frequently handle large video files or bulk data, you might find this throttling quite frustrating. It's okay for basic backups, but not ideal for heavy-duty tasks.

    Got this in August after i ran out of storage on my gaming pc. Have downloaded multiplayer and single-player games on it. Have not noticed any sort of latency from the games as they run smoothly without any issues.
