Hi,
I have just purchased a 12TB Ironwolf, which I shall be using in a caddy to backup a NAS via USB 3.
I have put it in the caddy and run some initial tests with Seatools, which ran OK. I have not formatted it yet.
I started running an error check in HD Tune Pro, but after an hour the temp went over 50c.
Is this to be expected, of does it potentially indicate a problem with the drive? Will I likely have a problem running this drive in this caddy?
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
