I had my Digirig mobile online today for about 6 hours and it became VERY warm. Is this normal. Before this my drive level would hang just below the red section. Now it is buried in the red section and will not come down.

I hope I did not fry my unit.

My Digirigs do not get warm. Maybe Denis @K0TX will address your concern.

Mine was very warm from the initial use, but I thought it was normal. Aboutva month later it quit. They replaced it, no questions asked.
