Bang for Buck

Pros: Price for not only capacity but performance
Cons: cheap slider cover setup
Overall Review: 1st pass direct to USB3 port 2nd pass with STD USB extension cable between drive and port formatted as NTFS HD Tune Pro: File Benchmark Transfer rate test File Size: 500 MB Sequential read 72909 KB/s Sequential write 21761 KB/s Random read 1661 IOPS Random write 5 IOPS Random read (queue depth = 32) 2169 IOPS Random write (queue depth = 32) Sequential read 31382 KB/s Sequential write 17802 KB/s Random read 1054 IOPS Random write 4 IOPS Random read (queue depth = 32) 1048 IOPS Random write (queue depth = 32) 2 IOPS
just in case

Pros: good design, slide out MB tray, perfect cable lengths, size. quiet enough even with 1x300GB raptor 1x640GB Black 1xBluRay & 1x KINGWIN KF-91-BK mobile rack.
Cons: super thin case shell easily bent if mishandled, on board LED fan, one sata power plug defeats purpose of short cable as you have to add extensions, had to swap out current ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro, too tall, CPU temp LED waste of time.
Overall Review: Swapped out fan straight away for mobo powered non LED fan. this is the 2nd of these I have, 1st belongs to #1 son and that has been in service with original Fan and PS for over 2 years. A lot to like about this box and a few quirks too but I now own 2
DOA

Pros: No Pros
Cons: Wasted time and money. This is either a used or refurb part that does not work
Overall Review: can not recommend
Does the Job

Pros: Price (@ big box store was way less), auto power up when PC turned on (this can also be a CON)
Cons: runs hot in the enclosure provided
Overall Review: second one of these both purchased elsewhere, both were taken out of enclosure and installed into San Digital TR4M,
recollection

Pros: way more ones and zeroes than the sticks that were removed
Cons: none than that can be recalled
Does the Job

Pros: Price, std USB3 cable, not of the tiny connectors.
Cons: tiny screwdriver (included) for tiny screws, some assembly required, for lumberjack hands not so user friendly.
Overall Review: inserted SSD with a couple of VMware images on it. Performance is up to scratch all things considered, would buy again
DOA
Pros: None. Cons: Item was either defective or damaged in transit. Other: Once I discovered the unit was faulty I spent $5 extra and purchased from other well known source. The replacement unit worked straight up. Contacted this vendor for support/refund but have heard nothing . I'm out $120+ Cannot recommend "Union Electronics Distributors.
No surprises
easy transaction, delivery a little long but as described, good price, would buy again from seller
Slow boat to China....
Cable works as designed, should have checked more closely regarding shipping as it took a few weeks to arrive, glad I was not in a hurry
