    Seems like a reliable drive in the case, but I've had occasional problems with the USB connection. I got this before I figured out that you can't get a USB-C hub that reliably connects to external disks without spending at least $400 on what they call a "dock", so it's not clear how much was the hubs and how much was the drive. It's currently unmountable because the last disconnect corrupted something, but now I have one of those ridiculous "dock" hubs so I don't expect that to happen again

    Works, but produces loud screeching clicks when data is accessed. Since I bought two of this kind HDDs and both are showing the mentioned noise, I think it is normal.

    Works as expected and has a lot of storage. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was it was extremely hard to hook up as a network drive.
