Review: Great Drive But......Here's The Fix... - Newer Hdd's Sata3.3 have PWDIS (Power Disable Feature), Easily remedied By using a Molex to Sata Splitter off the PSU...Basically if your Sata Power Lead has 5 Cables off it it will use PWDIS in your System,(Pin3) if your Sata Lead has 4 Cables off No PWDIS... It's the third pin of Sata that Utilises this function...Other Fix is 1mm x 4mm Tape Over Pin 3 So No Contact on Sata Cable When Inserted.. However My Older External Sata Usb 3.0. Caddy Recognized the Drive Straight Away again no PWDIS..Confused Me For a Bit when I put it in Media Center (No Power) Not Spinning...After Pulling Hdd,s, Sata Cables, etc... New One on Me...
Review: 3rd party seller troubles. - Purchased 2 of these in December by April they had started making weird noises then around the middle of may first one died then 2 days later the second one died, I contacted desertcart who told me to return them for a full refund, I sent them back 6 days ago and have yet to receive a notification they've got them back. The last time I sent something back was DDR5 memory, which was constantly overheating, and it took almost 8 weeks to get my money back. Please be cautious of third-party sellers when it comes to computer products, as they are quick to take your money but slow to refund it for faulty items. Now I am only going to buy items backed by desertcart, at least I've never had problems getting a refund from them, and it usually only takes 3 days or less.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work on a windows 10 operating system or is this only compatible on a nas server**
A: It's a hard drive, it'll work fine under Windows 10 but this type of drive would be best for long term storage, i.e. use it to backup or store large files while using an SSD or better yet nvme drive for your boot drive.

**Q: One reviewer stated that these Exos drives do not spin downwhen idle if setup to do so, is this true?**
A: Yes this is true. It's also quite a noisy metal case for the drive.

**Q: What's the mtbf of this drive?**
A: 2.5 million hours

**Q: Would this work on eufy home hub 3 for extra storage ??**
A: I suggest checking with Eufy

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Using them past 11 months without any issues
*by S***Y on 10 February 2025*

I bought two of these drives almost a year ago. I set them up in RAID 0 on my second NAS (sync my primary NAS to it for backup). It was cheaper and more beneficial than getting an external 32TB hardrive. Time will tell how they perform in the long run but for the past 11 months I have had no issues whatsoever.
