Pros: Has not given me cancer (sorry California) Simple Reliable Affordable Tough Exceeds specifications for HDD support

Cons: none

Overall Review: Works fine with 12TB WD drives. Overall these are the best HDD enclosures I have ever used.

Pros: Great when they work - cool, fast, low noise. I haven't had a problem with any WD drive that's passed a full write test.

Cons: One drive wouldn't power up and wasn't recognized by either Windows or Linux.

Overall Review: I can't stress enough the importance of doing a full write test on these drives immediately upon receiving one. Usually a full test takes about a day but it's worth it. There are a lot of faulty hard drives out there.

Pros: Very fast with connected HDD's in enclosures Small profile Reliable after about 6 months in operation

Cons: Tested with two USB thumb drives and in both cases they overheated. The initial transfer rate to both drives was much greater than had previously been achieved by directly connecting them to the PC's USB 3.0 ports, but after a few minutes both drives shut down as a result of apparent overheating. One thumb drive's plastic enclosure came apart due to the excess heating and was hot to the touch afterward.

Overall Review: Much faster than other USB hubs I've used but it does appear to have a problem with overheating USB thumb drives. Would not recommend connecting any type of thumb drive directly to this device. For connecting several other large USB peripherals with their own power supplies it's a good product.

Pros: Reasonably fast, reliable hard drive.

Cons: Earlier generations of these drives had many problems. The cost on these isn't dropping as quickly as it used to.

Overall Review: Be sure to make sure a new HDD passes a full format before you begin using it. It's an easy way to find out if you have a bad drive or not.

Pros: Works great, owned several and have had no issues with them at all. Excellent reliability.

Cons: None

Overall Review: They also make a silver enclosure which I prefer aesthetically. Same functionality in the silver version, in my experience.

Pros: Working fine with no problems.

Cons: None

Supposedly FedEx left the order at my door, but all I know is that no one knocked or rang at the supposed delivery time and there was no package. While the seller's terms encourage purchasers to require signature service, the seller does not provide this as an option and blocks any changes to the FedEx shipment so that signature service can't be added.

I'm not sure what the problem is, just that this hardware-software combination they sold me is unreliable garbage. A brand new installation of Windows 10 Pro is hanging and crashing constantly.
