I Like This Product 11/22/2013
This review is from: CineRAID CR-H252B Dual 3.5 Bay Quiet USB 3.0 RAID Enclosure (No Drives)
Pros:
Goes on sale frequently. This product is a solid bargain, but when it goes on sale, it is cheap. With the limited exposure I have had, I have found this product line to be reliable. I like that inserting the drives into the cage does not require tools. Supports 3TB Drives.
Cons:
None as yet
Overall Review:
My first CineRaid device was the 4 bay CR-H458. I have had that for about 18 months. I have it attached to my server, and use it in JBOD mode for backups. I have had absolutely no problem with it.
This experience gave me the confidence to purchase a CR-H252B. I have not used it for very long, but so far so good. I am using it with 2 Toshiba 3TB drives, also purchased from Newegg. I like the CR-H252B enough that I have just ordered 2 more. I intend to attach one to my Windows 7 Media Center PC.
I will mention that I have only used these devices in JBOD mode. I simply alternate my backups between the drives. I may try the RAID with my Media Center PC.
