    This an awesome drive both speed and durability and it looks cool too. What made me buy this drive is because the connection is usb-c. I prefer usb-c over other types. I use this for gaming and 3d projects and it works perfect for me.

    Pros: - Decent price. - Nice heatsink. Cons: - A bit noisy when idling. Might be due to being connected to a MacBook.

    I would not recommend this drive. I was using it with my MacBook Pro with the M1 chip. It was great for about 4 weeks. Then the drive would cause my computer to shut down while in the middle of tasks. I restored the drive several times but unfortunately kept doing the same thing. I'm no longer using it and will be contacting the manufacturer.

    It’s not very fast; it makes a vibration, sounds all the time, and it gets heated very fast. So I am not sure if I should recommend it to anyone.
