High performance disk
Pros: This drive has the highest sustained read rate I have ever seen in a 7200 RPM drive. A four drive raid0 array has a sustained read rate (hdparm -t) under Linux of 680 MB/s.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: None.
Pros: Works with SuSE Linux 11.1/kernel 2.6.27. The Marvell chip is supported in sata_mv.
Cons: Boot is slow because card's bios can not be disabled. Card bios has catabilibilty to write data on attached disks. Adaptec support did not respond to an e-mail request for information.
Overall Review: I did not test this card with Windows.
Dud
Pros: None
Cons: Disk was dead on arrival

Cons: The browser interface is poorly organized. but all the information you need to know is available.

Not reliable.
Pros: Convenient size and shape.
Cons: Does not work reliably with 2015 iMac running OS 10.12.1
