Hi, just got myself this 16To NAS drive (ST16000NM001G) as a huge backup drive. Bought a UGREEN USB 3.0 external enclosure that ought to accept drives up to 16To. Now when starting the enclosure, the drive is making a constant beeping sound and doesn't show up in Disk Utility (I'm running Big Sur 11.6). I tried with another enclosure and same issue (but that was a very old one and surely couldn't handle 16To drives). So at this point i don't know which is the culprit. False marketing from UGreen or faulty drive.
Did anyone manage to make this drive work with an external enclosure or could recommend one ? I don't really intend to use the drive in a NAS. On big drive should do. Thanks for your help and suggestions.
