Any tips to know which are new and which are not? Model number enough or is there more to it than that? I've seen old stock for sale before. It is new since it hasn't been used but may have been on a shelf for a while. I've got plenty of ventilation but do these things produce a lot of heat? Use more power than a regular hard drive? I'd think not but curious. Dale :-) :-)
