Works well if you can find the right PSU

I chose a 10A PSU for extra capacity. (Specifically SHNITPWR 5V 5V 10A 50W AC 100V 240V Power Adapter DC Power Adapter Converter Transformer 5.5x2.5mm Male.) I found that the USB Micro B connector is too close to the DC power connector lies to use a straight adapter. from a DC power source. Using a 90 degree adapter works, albeit with difficulty. (I tried two different brands of USB A to Micro B cables and both had Micro B connectors that were too wide to coexist with a direct DC power supply.) The only quirk in of work concerned the PNY 1TB SSD. If you mount it and enable another disk port, PNY will be disabled. If I do it the other way around (mount the HDD first and then the SSD), there is no problem.
