Review on 🔒 Cable Matters Dual Bay 2.5 Inch External SSD Enclosure: 10Gbps Aluminum USB C Enclosure with RAID Support - Thunderbolt 4 / USB4 / Thunderbolt 3 Compatible by Michael Welborn

First, speeds with two 1TB WD Blue 5400rpm drives, each with individual 125/100MB/s read/write top speeds: JBOD: 123 / 93RAID0 : 176 / 159RAID1: 123 / 83 The write speed for a 100GB file in RAID1 averages 110MB/s, which is fantastic. RAID 1 speed could be better, but overall the overhead of a SATA RAID controller is very small. I bought this for a backup and honestly if you're looking for insane speeds you're better off saving money for a second 2.5" drive and an m.2 enclosure with a much faster NVMe SSD to use. The build quality, materials, etc. are all superb and the device looks very premium. RAID mode is easy to set up and configure with small switches and a reset button.-1 star for the first defective device, but +1 star for the excellent CM customer support who sent replacements immediately. I have always been satisfied with CM products so this is a safe purchase. Separate hard drive enclosures are around $10, so $40 works out to around $20 for RAID. Could be cheaper but I'm happy with it.
