    I've had this only a few days so can't complain about anything yet. Works as it should. Hopefully it doesn't die the fourth time I use it like the 12 TB WD HD I bought a year ago...

    I bought this so I could run RAID with another 4TB surveillance drive. Once I put it in the bay the power stopped to the external hard disk case. The other hard drive was a different brand which also could be the issue. More than likely it was that my power supply couldn't handle another disk.
