Does it work? Yes. Does it work well? Not really. Or rather, it seems to struggle a lot, and I mean a lot, when it’s handling large amounts of data. I have 11.3TB on it, which means there’s still several terabytes worth of free space, but it lags a lot. It seems to me that it defaults to a sort of “sleeping” state when not in use, and whenever you want to put any data on it or interact with it in any way, it needs to first “wake up” before it can do anything, causing it to lag for 10-20 seconds during this start up process and make all kinds of rather concerning grinding noises while doing so. Once it is “awake” though, it operates as normal. It’s difficult to tell how long it stays “awake”, but if you don’t interact with it for a certain period of time, it goes back to “sleep,” meaning you have to repeat the long lag time basically every time you try to use the drive. I don’t recall it doing this when I only had a few terabytes of data stored on it, so I believe the drive gets slower as you add more data, but if it’s this annoying to operate at only 60% of its capacity, I can’t imagine how miserable it would be to try to use closer to maximum capacity.

Envio muy rapido. De momento funciona perfectamente. Buen preció.

I bought this one to backup my current external drive as it would be at capacity soon as well as main drive. The capacity is great but disappointed I can’t add existing external drive to the backup plan as it doesn’t pick it up. I wasted time on live chat as a simple question “should I be able to add external drive to the auto backup” seemed to confuse them. I expected a straight no but on off chance was a bug or update needed I copntacted them. About 20 minutes on live chat before I gave up and ended it, as it is a lot of photos and videos etc I backup would be great if it continuously or regularly updated it on tool.
