Disgusted
The drive goes to sleep every 5 minutes (and it's impossible to set this via the PC's perif config panel). When it restarts, it takes 1 minute during which the whole PC freezes (music, video or game). There's absolutely nothing you can do. And if you're unlucky, the file you were using gets damaged or corrupted.
What's more, with all these standby and restart times, the drive has just given out on me (29/04/25), i.e. 15 weeks of use! As for the transfer speed... I'd rather not say anything....
Expensive for the end result. So Sandisk -> forget it. No problem with my old Seagate, I'm sorry I wanted to change.Model: G-Drive 22 TBReview automatically translated -
