Turn off Windows USB power management and it will
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's really a little over 14 TB according to Windows storage panel which caused it to lose a star. It now has no issues when connecting. I have it on the same UPS as the PC. Once I turned off Windows USB power management (that would sleep the port) it would stay connected and ready. I moved OneDrive over to it to avoid running out of room on the main drive. I also have other cloud storage accounts and videos I save of twitch streams. I picked it up when it was on sale. I would buy it again at that price.

Built for capacity, not for speed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Holds a lot of stuff, but not the fastest. I wish it were bus powered, but that might not be possible with a drive this size.
