TERRAMASTER D6-320 External Hard Drive Enclosure - USB 3.2 Gen2 10Gbps Type-C HDD Storage Hot Swappable Plug and Play (Diskless)

Well I had 5 external hard drives hooked up to my server, I ran out of electrical outlets so I wanted something to change that. This was seamless, I shucked all the external drives and popped them in. Connected the USB-C and started up the server. All drives remained the same drive letter and I was back in business.I added some foam on the bottom as the hard drives have quite a bit of vibration when spinning (Enterprise drives) and this reduced the noise to nothing. Transfer speeds/read write are limited to what the drives can read/write and not what the controller/interface can handle.Overall great product, solved my needs, simple to setup, and I have a free bay for later expansion. The hot swappable feature is also very nice to have.

Good specs. Well made. Everything works. I wish the box has better sound proofing. HDD clicking noise is amplified by the tin box.

Not all enclosures play nice with Mac, this one does.Finding Thunderbolt, is rare, but also that has 6 bays & can handle 20TB drives is harder than you would think.This one handles all of that, and does it well.My only issue is that 10gbps is slower transfer than I hoped for, really wanted 80gbps, but TB5 enclosures are very rare. Even TB4 is very rare at this time.I appreciate the build quality, very solid, the box has some heft to it.The drive trays are all metal, slide in HDD, add 4 screws in the bottom to ensure rock solid stablity.The drives use the lever/latch method, which I prefer, really adds a solid feel and connection, which gives you easy access, and a solid lock down.Power supply meets the needs.The cooling fans keeps things cool, but run quiet.This box is compatible with macOS, Windows and Linux - options abound.
