Pros & Cons
Pros
Fan is effective and quiet. Hdd a bit noisy but that is the drive and to be expected. My only frustration with this device is it's cooling.
Overall a very adequate product, slotted into a reasonable price bracket with adequate build and performance. I appreciate the thought put into the design, ensuring that it accommodates different storage needs seamlessly.
As any rabid redditor well tell you there is no substitute for bang for buck, resilience, and longevity. The disk mounts and disk bay closure are perfectly functional and to be honest that's where quality should be focused.
The case is metal with plastic front and back. The compatibility with various hard drive sizes adds to its versatility. While the latches are a little flimsy, they are adequate.
