I powered it on for about six months, but only wrote to it once, and then left it unused. The HDD was written to a few times during initialization, but I think the HDD itself is practically new. The enclosure is also relatively clean. There are two places with writing on the manual, which have been erased with correction tape (see image). The box shows signs of use. - Brand: BUFFALO - Model Name: LinkStation - Storage Capacity: 8TB - Type: Network HDD - Features: RAID support
