[SATA 6 Gb/s] Since this device is so new, the device driver for Wi-Fi and Ethernet is not in the installation software for the operating system. You must connect an external USB Wi-Fi so that it can download the device driver from the internet. Other than this hiccup, everything works fine. I bought three. 5

[Black] Works great. Much better documentation and knowledge base compared to other Mini PCs 5

[2x 2.5" ] I have spent 3 times as much for a similar rack years ago. Although those racks supported a bit more weight it was not needed. I liked these shelves so much I bought 2 more. 5

[2RU] This is also the rail kit for the TS-h2477XU-RP. Always verify compatibility. To install, slide the inner rails out (you'll need to pull on the white tab), and then the rails will slide/lock into place on the sides of the QNAP unit. Mount the slide rails in your rack, and slide the QNAP unit into the mounted rails. These rails are for a couple of the 4RU units; on the TS-h2477XU-RP, the rails mount on the 2nd RU from the bottom. So when you mount the rails in the rack, place them 1 RU up from where you want the bottom of the unit to be (or 2 RU down from the top). Rail mounting is straight forward, and mating to the QNAP with the inner slides happened with ease. Highly recommend the use of the appropriate rail kit with the QNAP rackmount units. 5
