Failed after 1.5 years 12/23/2013
This review is from: Sans Digital 5-Bay eSATA RAID 0/1/10/5/JBOD Tower Storage Enclosure w/ 6G PCIe Card TR5M+B (Black)
Pros:
Worked great for about a year and a half. Used as my backup device for my server, loaded with 5 1TB RE4 WD drives.
Cons:
I think it finally died today. It said my array was corrupt, and then it would fail when trying to rebuild the array. Always the same slot #2. Tested the disk and it was fine, and even tried another disk, which it also could not use to rebuild. Then port #1 started acting up.
Overall Review:
I'd skip by this device; I expected the drives to fail before it did, but I was sadly disappointed. The disks have a 5 year warranty, its a shame this only has one.
