Pros: Had such good luck with the original V1 I thought I'd get another. I had the silver and black allows me to remember which drives are in which for backup. First thing I did was flash the chip to turn off the sleep issue. Tried USB and SATA, no problem on either. After reading about so many 3.0 problems I can live with slower speed that is more reliable. Far as I know these are still using Jmicron bridges instead of Asmedia which I believe the 3.0 does use.
Cons: None, price was great on sale, shipping was quick. Blue disco LED's are rather bright, don't leave this on in a dark room, it's annoying. I backup what I want then turn it off so it's not an issue.
Overall Review: Fan is 80x10mm and tends to get noisy fairly quickly. This can be repaired by buying a Evercool Ball bearing fan. You will need to cut the wires and solder or use heat shrink to fix. I did this with my silver v1 and it's smooth and quiet.
