Anyone else have a similar experience with one of these drives?

I wonder if it’d be worth returning if you’re still in the window. I don’t know how common the issues are though. Maybe check out the Ars Technica article someone linked?

Well I bought it for mass media storage for an upcoming trip. So I’ll just see how it goes and consider options afterward

But then wouldn’t you lose the data from your trip in the experiment though?
