Troubleshooting

Drive not recognized by the computer.

Try plugging the drive into a different USB port. If it still isn't recognized, try another computer to rule out a device issue. Check Device Manager (Windows) or Disk Utility (macOS) to see if the drive is listed and has any errors. You might need to reformat the drive.

Slow transfer speeds.

Ensure you are using a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port (often indicated by blue coloring inside the port). Transfer speeds can also be affected by the size and type of files being transferred. Try transferring a single large file to test speed vs. many small files.

Drive becomes hot during use.

This is normal during intensive data transfers, but if it becomes excessively hot, disconnect it and allow it to cool down. Ensure proper ventilation around your computer and the USB port.

Files are missing or corrupted.

Ensure that the drive was safely ejected from the computer before removal. Run a disk check utility (Windows) or First Aid (macOS) to check for and repair file system errors.
