Works as described with some issues

Reviewed in Australia on 27 October 2019

This unit takes the drives and secures them well. Easy to initialise if you follow the instructions carefully.
The performance is OK, but the issue is the NOISE from the internal cooling fan.
This fan is very loud to the point of annoyance. If you install the unit into your local network for access from anywhere, then I find it has to be shutdown after your finished with it as it will not 'sleep' unless the USB is physically connected to your PC or Mac system (then when your computer/laptop sleeps so does the Mediasconic ProRaid unit.)
Once it is unplugged from a computer/laptop then the fan will not turn off. A firmware update would be nice from the manufacturer to address this ... fingers crossed. Until then 3 stars!

... Initially Great, then....

Reviewed in Canada on 4 September 2017

Works well the additional fan inside keeps the drives at good temperatures. I can't complain at all about the quality and performance of this dual bay enclosure.

UPDATE: Spoke too soon. I talked with Media Sonic about a weird issue that it seems many are encountering. Drives will randomly convert to RAW format loosing all partition information. The issue here as per Mediasonic is that if the drive bay is disconnected from the usb port while on, or other devices being connected (depending on chipset), that the possibility of drive/partition loss exists....

In 30 years of working in IT I have not seen a drive cage/bay do this with this much regularity as with this enclosure. 3 different sets of drives all with the same result. I have 3 ProRaid Boxes, and 2 bay docks from MediaSonic, all work amazingly (for many years), this device however is definitely not of the same MediaSonic Quality.

Je ne le recommande pas du tout

Reviewed in Canada on 19 April 2019

Verified Purchase

J'ai acheté ce boîtier pour en faire un complément d'espace de stockage relié à mon serveur NAS dans mon salon. Le ventilateur est très bruyant. Ne se met pas en mode veille si l'appareil à lequel il est relié ne se met pas en mode veille lui-même ou si il n'a pas un mode d'extinction du courant sur les prises USB. Je l'ai configuré pour une utilisation raid 1 (miroir). Mes données ont étés corrompues... À peine utilisé 2 ou 3 semaines, je m'en suis débarrassé car il est trop bruyant et pas fiable. C'est pas cher et ça vaut pas cher, investissez dans quelque chose de meilleure qualité...

Poor durability, screw handler broken in second open

Reviewed in Canada on 6 February 2019

Verified Purchase

This enclosure looks nice and has a fan build in, but it's pretty loud.
I was happy when I got it, but after a month when I open it and switch HDD, one of the screw nut broken. Then I took a closer look, it's the plastic piece hold the nut cracked. See picture, and too late, can't return it.

A good-value RAID enclosure with some tradeoffs

Reviewed in Canada on 15 August 2017

Verified Purchase

Barely bigger than a DVD box set, this compact 2-drive enclosure is attractive and very easy to set up, with clear instructions and labelling. The brushed (metal? plastic?) sides do pick up fingerprints easily. The construction is mostly plastic, so be firm but gentle when inserting drives into the connectors. You'll also need two sizes of Phillips-head screwdrivers, a small one to open the case, and a larger one to tighten the drive mounting screws. The included USB3 cable is fine to sit it next to a computer, but a bit short if you need to place it more than a couple of feet away. Wall-wart adapter takes up a lot of room, so make sure you have a power bar with generous spacing. Overall, a good choice for an inexpensive external RAID or backup drives (for Time Machine, Dropbox etc). If you need one for more critical studio or business use, I would look for something with a more robust all-metal enclosure and vibration dampening construction.

Worked fine in a few months (except a lit bit loud)

Reviewed in Canada on 17 January 2018

Verified Purchase

Worked fine in a few months (except a lit bit loud), however the raid configuration stoped getting recognized by PC after months of use. It happened twice before but rebooting the machine got it worked again, but not this time.
I tried all kind of data recovery software I can get but none of them worked, I suppose that's because all software that support raid recovery are aimming at scenarios that raids are done by software, but this one is done by hardware level. Which means I have to first have all drives recognized seperately by PC and then use recovery software to get my data back, but I am afraid changing the way of raid configuration (from raid0 to Single Mode) will jeopardize the integrity of my data.
I would love to get support from Mediasonic tho.
