So i’m testing one of the drives I got on amazon using an old computer. It started off promising, didn’t get any errors when formating the drive, write speed using a usb adapter at 25mb/s… Then it dropped off to 7mb/s and the expected time shot up from 40hours to 156h🤣
I’m going to let it run over night and see what happens in the morning. If I can get it to show 4tb without error I might still keep them to test out my geekworm pi nas, otherwise back to amazon you go!
let me know if they actually end up having full capacity, because slow drives I can deal with. That price per TB is close enough to spinning metal to finally tip the scale for me towards SSDs
I will let you know in 20 days 😅🤪🤣
