Compact and efficient
It's still small in size, but with a good capacity. No installation, just plug it in and it's ready to go (Linux Mint).

WD 5 TB: after a few backups
Product as described. NTFS pre-formatted. First uses for backup without problem. As is often the case, see how it performs over time.

Great.
5to in the size of a packet of Gauloises. Quiet. Doesn't heat up much: below 30°C despite 6 hours of sustained writing. Gets along very well with Linux Mint 21.0 - About 20% smaller than its 4TB predecessors from the same manufacturer. I'm happy, very happy.

Meh
As for the delivery, impeccable as usual. I had 4TB to save my work and for a few euros more, I might as well take 5TB. I am extremely surprised and disappointed by the slow writing speed, but I have no choice.

Good product
Immediately detected under windows 11, ready to use, fast usb3 speed (no USB C plug on this version).
I bought it with the Case logic QHDC-101K case because I had read that the hard drive vibrated .... it's true that it vibrates slightly ... at least now it's safe in its big cosy nest. I use it for occasional archiving.Review automatically translated
