I noticed this behavior in Sierra (I had a 27" iMac at the time) and every OS that followed up to and including Catalina. I've tried to work with the small 3.5s and the Mac just surreptitiously ejects them and 3rd party software like Amphetamine will not prevent it from happening. The USB bus on my 13" MBP cannot handle the power requirements of these little boogers. Great! Now I have 5TBs of data get lost forever when the drive invariably dies on me after a month, instead of just 2TBs!I went back to strictly 5.25 drives for safety.
