This product is a total disappointment. It claims to connect your devices, but fails to do so. I have tried this on several computers and it just doesn't work. The idea is great, but the execution is terrible. The only positive thing I can say is that it looks sleek, but that doesn't make up for the fact that it's useless.
Used it on my H200e to externally connect a 4 in 3 hot swap case to my PC case. Works exactly as expected - all four drives are seen/recognized by the operating system with no issues. I'll be ordering a second one soon.
Pros
It has an external 26-pin Mini Sass Soff 8088 connector (with release ring) on one end and 4x 7-pin SATA connectors on the other end.
. I am using 2 of these to connect a Dell R610 + LSI 9200-16e server to a custom DAS (Direct Access Storage) enclosure. Works as it should.
Pros
