This is a very low current drive, so I'm hoping it will survive wrt thermal performance in the 2.5" slot. Can one get SMART info (ie temp, etc) via vix?
Thanks. I do get that switching and running have effects on longevity of any electromech system, but the advice generally is to use WD purple (3.5") drives which are optimised not just for continuous running but also for continuous writing which generally happens in video/surveillance systems. I'm trying to navigate between the various theories out there as there is very little in the 2.5" space...!
