-Easy to setup. -Great quality. -Great price.
Works great out of the box, plug-and-play, does exactly what it's supposed to do.
Pro: It is a USB 3.0 with much faster transfers. Easy hook up and no issues with adapter card. I would recommend purchasing this model.
- Small portable, easy to use design -NVMe enclosure with decent cables - 1 free small thermal pad - cables fit nice and snug
Much better thermally compared to 5 disk Syba external enclosure (RAID) which has no manual fan control HD Temp ~40-47C with fan @ max and idle state; under load HDs may go over 50C (Seagate Exos 8TB series) but stayed below 55C (auto shutdown in my setups) even under heavy load
Vantec cases have a history of manufacturing quality with parts that fit together well. Fanless design for quiet performance. Case material is brushed aluminum, which does not show fingerprints as readily as glossy or plastic cases. Has on/off switch.
Well built which was a surprise. Works great the best I can tell. Tested it with sata 1,2,and 3 hdds. 3.5/2.5 and no issues. If you are a backyard pc'er who had to fix his family and friends pc's or recover data, this will work.
The features IDE, 2.5/3.5 SATA are extremely useful. The USB 3.0 interface transfer speed is very noticeably FAST. The IDE feature work flawless. NOTE: The cheep IDE/USB adapters did not work
