Exactly as expected

Arrived within a day, easy to use, just plug in the drives, turn on and connect to your computer. USB-C to USB-C cable and so far it works great. A lot of comments mentioned it gets hot and the fan spins loud so I docked the star but I can do like the others and work without the cover or I can change the cover later to close for extra airflow worries. I'll let you know if I have any further problems.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Expensive Insurance

Nice HD enclosure, the best among HDD enclosures

Using it for a JBOD enclosure works well. I only gave 4 stars because of the noisy fan, but I'll deal with that for now. Easy connection to a computer, all hard drives are recognized without problems. All 5 disks (4TB, 3TB and 3 of 2TB) already had data and there were no problems with the computer recognizing them.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Some little things

Great concept, little reality.

I love the concept but the reality is it's LOUD and gets insanely hot. I mean, so loud and so hot that I can't help but think that if I left it on regularly it would severely affect the life of the discs inside. what I decided not to do. Besides, it was unsettling. Existing data was not moved to this destination with the drive. Despite everything, every disk I put in for the first time had to be initialized. Luckily I had backups but it wasn't what I expected at all. All in all I was very happy

Pros
  • Stable Test Results
Cons
  • Replacement Availability

Weak fan, very hot!

That's a great idea and looks nice, but the fan doesn't do much to cool the drives; they get very hot. If you remove the top and feel the hard drive spin for a while, you can only put your finger on it for about 3 seconds before you burn your finger. The space underneath for a fan is literally too small for any airflow. The fan isn't very loud as many have said in their reviews, it all comes down to personal preference. .If this case was made for real cooling it would be worth the price, now Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice construction
Cons
  • Anything I can add

I have changed my rating to 3 stars. The device still has flaws but the seller is very responsive and willing to re-evaluate the item to see if it can be improved or the price reduced. <edit> 2.5 stars. The fan makes sales difficult. The drives aren't cooling properly and I can expect premature failure in the future. Poor design and cheap materials make it not worth the price. Bought it as a JBOD server to stream to my TV. It works. My problem is that it is a box with 5 SATA portsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Negative gift
