[2x Fans] Using as JBOD for archiving and scheduled backups. Quet, easy to load drives, no hardwarre required.

[40 TB] i just bought this because I was having a lot of trouble with my OWC Thunderbay 4 bay with Thunderbolt 3. My drives were randomly getting ejected for no reason. There's some kind of mysterious problem with either the OS or the enclosure. Anyway I went out and got this guy and I really like it so far. Nice solid design. Quiet fan. It's relatively fast with the TB2. I've only had it for about two weeks so I don't know if I'll have the power supply problem a few others have mentioned but so far so good.

[13.8 dBA] Working great

[2x Fans] I have 3 computers at home and one of these hooked up to each one. It makes backups easy and tb sized drives can be moved between the machines. Makes life easier.

[14 x 10 x 7.9"] I’ve had it running as Time Machine for about a week. So far, it’s flawless. It’s much quieter than the Dropbox D5 which it replaced, which wouldn’t work with my Mac M1.

[2x Fans] I have three of these, one fan became a bit noisy, the others are fine. Performance is solid, easy to install drives. I use them with SSDs, software RAID 0 and RAID 1 hard drives, no issues.

[2x Fans] We bought this two years ago and have been using it for our archive drive. Presently we have 3 - 4TB WD Red PRO HDD's in it working in a RAID 5 setup so we have a bit of a fail safe. The speed is more than adequate for an archive drive, we're getting full functionality of the drives, and we've had no issues with any of the ports. When the firmware update came out a year (or so) ago, the product was finally able to be set to not go to sleep (which had been a problem) but there is a time-setup for setting the device to go to sleep if it's not used within x-hours. My intentions are to buy one of these for my home, it's extremely cost effective and my own professional photography could benefit from such a condensed system to contain all of my data. The software is semi-archaic, but if I can sort it out anyone can.

[40 TB] I put 2 old drives in it and one new one and it works great and was easy to set up.

[40 TB] Good company. Got a qualified tech on the phone quickly. Rep tols me this unit has a faster processor than the five bay. I bought both. In this unit I have two 3tb drives, raid 0 that I video edit with. The five bay mobius is my backup system with all 4tb drives. Very happy with my expanded system. Also, my 2008 mac pro got a great boost when I purchased the Sonnett PCIe card that holds two SSD drives as my new processing drive. It has two eSATA ports that I plug these units into.

[Aluminum] Looking for more storage and data protection/reliability of a more advanced RAID and this enclosure fit the bill. With good drives at low prices, and the flexibility this enclosure allows (including easy swap of drives) this is now my main image drive (yes, with nightly backups and cloud storage, just in case) and I can use the swappable drive features to put projects - video in particular - on different drives as needed. Add in B&H free shipping (next day since I'm in Philly) and it's a great combination.
