What I'm looking for?

Looking for medium feedback.

If WD is not causing any problems stick with it. Use it at high settings and since you're already using SWH you're good to go. You could try windows firewall hardening (if you're using windows firewall) to further lock down your computer from fileless malware

I am not sure that I will use it in the long term, we shall see.
