    Terrific, solid enclosure. Looks great too. Since it's an HDD, it runs at all times it's connected to the computer, and my desk resonates with the vibrations so it's a bit loud. If I were using it in a recording scenario, it would have to be isolated to stop the noise. It doesn't sleep, so I have to dismount/unplug it from my Mac Mini to shut it down, even though it's still plugged in to the power supply. But a well-made drive, and a great, Goldilocks capacity.

    I've been using GDrives for a while now. The best feature about the USB-C drives though in particular is that it does charge laptops when plugged in. Also great size, 4TB was too small for the project I'm editing, but 8TB was too expensive for the budget.

    I spent some time looking into a affordable external HDD. I liked the price of the G-Drive with 6TB and had a few decent reviews. So I went for it. Did a simple backup of my files, no more than 50GB just to try it out. A week later, I go to do a system image backup of 1.8TB and when connecting the HDD, I get no sound of connection etc. windows never picked up the device. I tried my other PC, same thing. Wasn’t detected. No vibration or sound from the HDD at all. Just simply dead. Very sad to see it crash so soon. I returned the G-Drive and replaced it with a WD_Black 8TB HDD for $40 more. Already done a system image back up with it on both PC’s and it’s done great.

    I purchased this because I wanted an external HD with a power on switch. I do not need the drive on the entire time or have to disconnect the HD usb cord to turn off this drrive.
