Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

    In 2 months though?

    The fact that it was a known issue, should have clued them in that maybe it should be used for memes, NFTs, and other crap that means absolutely nothing in the real world.

      Aside from design defects, most items havr a bathtub curve for reliability. Stuff either fails very early on, or very late.

      These drives are obviously defective. But USB harddrives in general should be used for copying data from point A to B, or storing secondary/tertiary copies of data. But definitely not long term storage of valuable data.
