Overheated, crashed, lost data

Pros Fast, cheap, large storage size, BUT...
Cons Overheats too easily, data loss
Recommended it? No

Just be sure never to leave this hard drive on for more than 6 hours, or else it will overheat and crash, like mine did. After looking at the design, I am convinced this is a design flaw, as I see absolutely no way for the heat to dissipate, unless you constantly blow a fan at it.
