Review on πŸ“± StarTech.com 3-Bay Trayless Mobile Rack Backplane - Aluminum Hot Swap Backplane for 3.5in SAS II/SATA III - 6 Gbps HDD (HSB3SATSASBA) by Cris Drew

Revainrating 4 out of 5

but it's normal. Big complaint

Decent backplane, has worked with all my drives so far with no compatibility issues. Two criticisms: the blue LEDs are a bit bright, but that's okay. The big complaint is that the mounting holes ripped off on me with almost no torque. I managed to keep a few intact and they stay in place pretty well, but the plastic case ripped off at least three holes with little to no pressure. The first impression was not very good, but I made it.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Volume
