This is a nice light, but that has one issue.
The so called "on button", is not really a button. It is a
contact point. The light turns on when it and part of the
metallic housing are touched simultaneously. Your body
completes the circuit, and the light comes on. When the
circuit is broken, the light goes out, but only after several
seconds.

The problem that arises is that most people will have this
light in a pocket. Every time the hand enters the pocket
there is a good chance the light will be turned on.
This will shorten the life of the battery.

This will shorten the life of the battery.
I have created a simple way to avoid this by putting a
small piece of tape over the "button" to shield it from
my fingers (see picture). It is simple, and works.

This is a great drive - a huge amount of storage and fast!
However, if you are writing large amounts to it, you may
need to get a fan. Let me relate to you my experience.
However, if you are writing large amounts to it, you may
need to get a fan. Let me relate to you my experience.
When I first got the drive, I set it up to do a full scan of
the drive. I did a CrystalDiskInfo before I started (see
the picture), and the disk temperature was 31deg C.
The scan took 5 hours. At the end of the scan the disk
temperature had risen to 50deg C (see the picture). After
completing the scan I watched to see how the temperature dropped. After 3 hours it had fallen to
45deg C. The passive cooling acts very slowly, despite
the large number of slots in the bottom, top, and back
of the drive housing.

of the drive housing.
Next I obtained a dual fan, and set one at the back to
push cool air into the drive. I put the second on top of
the drive to pull hot air out of the drive. I then wrote files to the drive for 3 hours. The starting temperature of the
drive was 30deg C. The temperature at the end of the
3 hours of copying files was just 33 deg (see picture)! I think this shows the effectiveness of having external fans.

I use this drive to archive material on my desktop computer at regular intervals. Large amounts are written
to the drive, and I need the fans to maintain the health
of the drive. I suspect that others using this drive will
be doing something similar, and would benefit by adding
fans.

How big is the power supply in this unit? Can I add a Nvidia 1050 GPU without upgrading the Factory power supply?
The unit has an internal 180 Watt power supply. I believe you would have to replace it with a higher power supply to run such a card. I did a little research on upgrading the power supply for this machine. It is not so easy. I would recommend sticking with the built in graphics. The machine was not designed for higher end gaming.
