Review on Blackjet VX-2SSD USB 3.1 Gen 2 10Gbps Thunderbolt 3 Compatible Dual SSD Docking Station: UASP Support, RAID 0/1, JBOD for High-Speed Storage & Archiving by Lild Zimmerly

Revainrating 4 out of 5

RAID 0 performance that pushes your SSD's performance beyond the 540MB/s limit

The enclosure is quite heavy for its small size. If you put it on the table, it will not fall. RAID 0 performance and transfer speed actually take full advantage of USB C Gen 2. However, I'm only giving it 4 stars because the included USB C cable only supports a 480Mbps connection. Dropped only 48MB/s. I had to use a separate Belkin USB-C cable to connect the part to the host computer over a 10Gbps connection. After the communication issue was resolved, transfer speeds actually exceeded 560MB/s on my old SSDs. I'm sure new SSDs on the market will show much faster data transfer speeds. Pros: - You can remove SSDs at any time. - Very durable quality enclosure - RAID0 performance exceeds the 450MB/s limit for USB 3.0 enclosures. Cons: - bundled with an inferior USB-C cable - for many SSDs, it won't work properly without a DC power supply

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Almost never
