    Died at 30 months... 18tb is alot of data!!! Better off splitting your data up and having multiple back ups. Faster to mirror. This was unreadable, undetectable but had power... Would be fine, then blink out which corrupted files it was in the process of saving crashing my design software. Constantly troubleshooting and now the power died...not worth buying a cord and wasting another minute on it.

    High capacity at a good price. Drive transfer rates are as expected for a drive that is still compatible with older USB’s.

    So far so good, its a hard drive so hopefully it will last a long time. I like the storage. The value could have been better, but like everything else these days. You're going to have to pay too much if you want it.
