  • Good question! I probably could try drying this filament again, just for kicks…I did dry it not too long ago but it’s probably been long enough that it couldn’t hurt. But yes I’ve seen this issue with virtually every PLA filament I’ve used when the factors I mentioned are all true.

    When this failure occurred, I was about 100 filament swaps in (it’s a multicolor print) so faint evidence of the nozzle purging/eject/reload/etc process in the midst of powerful fans is at least initially what I had attributed that to.















  • Make sure there is a warranty/decent return policy and test obviously as others have said…but I’ve bought more 3 and 4TB HGST drives than I care to admit and have very rarely had any issues. At the price you can find even larger TB sizes for I personally consider it worth the gamble for certain use cases.
