But I returned the plate, as it has a property that a deficiency constitutes in my eyes (whether it is intentional, I do not know):
After about 20 seconds without data access, the drive goes to sleep. This manifests itself by the fact that no sound is heard and to feel no vibration. But above all, the next data access requires several seconds until the drive is started again; you hear the startup also clear.
For other disks, it is customary to go to about 10 minutes in the sleep mode. 20 seconds are definitely counterproductive.
On my TV brand LG as USB recording disk (DVR) has basically functioning. If the disk is not used, the TV accesses but to every 30 seconds short on the plate. Because as this has then gone to bed already, so goes once every 30 seconds down high and even. What a bummer!
A few days after I returned the plate, I saw the same model on the table of a work colleague. When I spoke to him at the plate, he berichetete me of similar problems, For him she drives probably partly down even if sieeigentlich right in operation. That could happen, for example, like this: You can hear an MP3 file; the PC has one minute then recharge in the buffer and wants - the plate is then again in sleep mode and must be raised again before the song can go on.
Conclusion: For me, a bad buy!
