    Was worried about slow access speeds and would I lose the data if it were bumped hard. I keep it where it will not get bumped, and the speed is just fine

    Works great out of the box. Only thing it doesnt have is a power button. You just simply just remove power source after carefully unmounting from computer

    So far, so good. I'm hoping the external drive lasts. Many times they seem to fail after a few years. I hope I have purchased a dependable drive.

    Starting to click and crackle in only a month

    Arrived fine and worked well at startup, but it is less than a month into its use and already it is crackling and even clicking at times- potential signs of bad sectors, and I fear I might need a replacement already. It also consistently gets over 120f, with an external fan facing it to keep it cooler, since it overheated to the point of needing to be shut off for a bit earlier in the week. : < No external damage either, it just seems something inside is faulty.
