Gets extremely, and I do mean extremely, hot and very slow performance. Refuses to eject. And this is unit #2 which Western Digital kindly sent to me under warranty as unit #1 exhibited the same issues. I give this product a solid Do Not Buy rating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
We are sorry to hear about your user experience. Please be informed that poor or slow speeds can be caused by: Host device port speed, Format and file system, Directory with lots of small files, Deeply nested directory etc. Also, Please not metal absorbs more heat than plastic. Metal releases heat faster when touched. It may feel hotter compared to drives made from plastic being used in the same way.

Works great and very fast. Was able to back up most everything important from an older computer pretty quickly. Lots of storage. Versatile between USB-A and USB-C ports.
extremely bad performance: Writes < 10MB/s including IO blocking. Basically unusable if you are thinking to copy more than 100MB. Even more unusable with Rekordbox. The many years old regular SanDisk Ultra 3.0 is a much superior product!
