OCTAGONPEG 10/7/2012 4:55:19 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 1/5	Rating: 1/5Why? Pros: None Cons: Why would anyone purchase this unit when you can buy the External enclosure from Mediasonic or Cineraid or Rosewill for less money and some of those are also tool-less and screw-less ? Enclosures are quieter, have a fan to actively pass air over the drives, and are more secure and easier to carry as a portable unit, than this thing. Other Thoughts: I give this a Zero. 0 out of 10 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Chrome69 4/27/2012 9:36:28 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5Update Pros: I did setup a eSata card on my machine and am happy to report alot better speeds in transfer so eSata is the way to go with this puppy. Cons: Slow in USB mode and can't control each hard drive in USB mode only eSata with all of them resetting. The sound of the HDD spinning can give you a false impression that your drive maybe going "South" Other Thoughts: I have noticed one thing you can hear the HDD working alot more then you would inside a computer or a enclosed box. Makes them sound like a percolator. Now i have heard this before and it was a sign that a hard drive was going "South" and it did. But i have 3 band new HDD different sizes by Western Digital and they all do it. 1 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Chrome69 4/5/2012 8:01:11 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5I wouldn't recommend this Pros: easy to setup, works great in USB mode on Win & Pro 64bit, finds all my drives including a 3.0TB drive.. Over all very quiet and looks good, speed performance in USB 2.0 is good (think i moved 16gb and my average speed was 31mbps) yes i know still rather slow, but a improvement from my other tower. Cons: What they lack to tell us is that you will have to buy a separate card to support 4 HDD in eSata. My new Acer tower has a eSata slot and will not support more then 1 HDD. From what i read about Mediasonic this is common with their products. Oh in USB mode when you shut down 1 HDD you can't be transferring data on another drive or it will screw it up. It would appear that's only for eSATA. Found that out the hard way, Win 7 rescans all the drives. Other Thoughts: I wouldn't recommend this unless you plan to buy a eSata card to get the better speeds. USB mode is ok if you do alot of work and swapping of drive this is for you BUT if you plan on dropping drives in and leaving them their for the long haul i don't suggest it. I also had for 2 or 3 weeks Mediasonic HF2-SU2S2 4 Bay box and that was returned as well very cheap products.... 1 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you?
