Bought December 2023 for 300 pounds, so 15 pounds / TB. Needs power supply unfrotunately besides USB, the largest one without needing power supply was only 5 TB at the time so not worth it, given that my <P14s> alreay carriers 2 TB. 10x is a must for the external crap.

Noise: it has a constant pleasant hum, with a not so nice click every 5 seconds or so. Reasonable, but not amazingly incredible.

The size is reasonable, not megaportable, but definitely reasonable.
