No AES 256-bit encryption
Slow write speed after write cache fills
Thermal Throttling (During SNIA Tests)
Prev
Must register for warranty
Phison E18 will thermally throttle under heavy writes unless properly cooled
Endurance Numbers (For Some)
High price
Thermal throttling quite aggressive
Would be nice for the big Sabrent heatsink to be included for free
Some performance pitfalls
High cost per gig at 4TB and 8TB capacities
Somewhat sluggish in PCMark and 3DMark tests
Must register drive to boost warranty from two to five years
