Very hot temperatures when actively being used.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I notice this drive showed very high temps according to Crystal Disk Info. It goes back down when idle. I shucked my drive (removed the outer shell) and have the bare drive mounted outside my case and I still get VERY high temps when doing a lot of read / writes. Since I don't know what the long term reliability will be I can't really recommend this drive.
