Pros: Multiplexer card included in bundle also has low profile adapter. Drives stay cool. Quick setup and installation. Each drive has an independent access led.
Cons: Needs sleds or rails to secure drives in a hot-swap configuration. Screws require opening the case.
Overall Review: Attached to a FreeNAS (FreeBSD) appliance. FreeNAS sees through the RocketRaid card and presents four drives to the OS. Allows the use of the more advanced software RAID-Z features of ZFS. Enclosure has been in use for 8 months without issue.
