### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for backup storage
*by R***K on 3 February 2025*

Great for backup storage. Speed as usual as HDD over USB 3.0 It makes weird noises when placed in a wrong orientation, which possibly might damage it internally.

### ⭐ Very Bad Experience
*by N***R on 5 September 2025*

I got the one touch version and it was told its better than expansion but i feel not. The capacity of the drive is good. But thats the only positive. After starting the drive the disk tried to make the harsh rubbing sound. If you try to format or access data or do anything as it runs the sound of harsh thuds and rubs increases. I am trying to get it replaced but i don't have a option and i am very much sceptical on storing data as if it worsens and the arm fails to read all data is gone. Hence its kept empty as bought. No point of purchasing this product as 18tb is just laying around unusable due to this issue.
