The first thing I noticed is that the drive is extremely loud. The culprit here seems to be the airflow, not the machinery, since it's just about silent if I block the air exhausts in the back of the device (clearly, a VERY short-term solution.) Don't plan to share your work or living space with this gadget. ... Read More
