  • Gakktu úr skugga um að snúran sé vel tengd bæði við SSD-diskinn og hýsiltækið.
  • Prófaðu aðra USB-tengi á tækinu þínu.
  • Prófaðu aðra USB snúru.
  • Endurræstu gestgjafatækið þitt.
  • Check if your device's operating system requires specific drivers (unlikely for most modern OS).
Hægur flutningshraði
  • Ensure your host device's USB port supports USB 3.2 Gen2x2 for maximum speed. Older USB ports (e.g., USB 3.2 Gen1, USB 2.0) will result in lower speeds.
  • Other ports, including Thunderbolt, may be capped at 10Gbps.
  • Actual speeds vary with file sizes, system conditions, and the number of files. Transferring many small files is slower than one large file.
  • Lokaðu öðrum forritum sem gætu verið að nota kerfisauðlindir.
Displayed capacity is less than advertised (e.g., 1862GB for 2TB on Windows)This is due to algorithmic differences in how operating systems and manufacturers calculate storage capacity. 1GB is calculated as 1,024MB on Windows versus 1,000MB on SSDs. The full capacity is present.
SSD feels warm during useThis is normal, especially during heavy data transfers. The zinc alloy casing is designed to dissipate heat. If it becomes excessively hot, ensure proper ventilation. The drive has adaptive thermal balancing to protect itself.
Data corruption or lossAlways safely eject the SSD before disconnecting it. Avoid sudden power loss during transfers. If data loss occurs, specialized data recovery services may be required.
