Quality


Sturdy metal construction and i like that its got toolless hot swap


Good transfer speeds and easy to install the disks


I have it all mirrored on an 8tb drive so just in case the raid 5 suffers a major failure i wont lose all my data


Westerndigital external drive had a failure and i lost so much data that i will never be able to get back again

Price


I got this on sale which really sweetened the deal


The cheapest diy recovery was 300 but wouldn’t work since i couldn’t boot the server with the array or even individual disks attached


I had a cheap 50 raid 1 box that died on me after about 3 years of use


The precious and expensive data loss was a big loss for me

Shipping


After sending in my amazon invoice i was told it was still under warranty


I wish it was faster but ill take it for now

Competitiveness


I had initially contacted terramaster about getting a replacement fan and was told terramaster did not sell replacement parts


Honestly this has been working better than the owc raid box i purchased a month or two ago


I was very upset but terramaster offered a discount on a new one

    You dont need to install any software to use it as a usb drive but if you want to use it as raid drive then you will need to download software
