Customer Review

In general I am satisfied with this external hard drive. It is extremely powerful and, thanks to the 7200rpm quickly. The energy saving mode is a very positive, after some time without access they will automatically turn off, then either back to them to jump immediately back to you and work with her again.
So it runs in this sense, everything was perfect. Incidentally, the drive was not partitioned with me in two drives, as reported in another review.

But what is me very disturbing that the power supply begins to make sounds as soon as the hard disk has turned off. As I sit at the computer I find it not that great because the self is a little louder. However, as I sleep in the same room, nervts me know that a buzz from the power supply comes. That's why I always have to draw the plug ..
Maybe someone knows what it's all about. Maybe I'm going to replace the power supply a try.
