Just got my 12TB Barracuda Pro, did the long generic test and passed. Started transferring large videos (E.g. 30GB each) from my SN980, and I noticed it has many troughs when transferring. I didn’t notice this on normal consumer drives, so I just want to ask are those dips normal & expected? If I was transferring only small files, then I understand, but doesn’t make sense for large files?
