Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This product is cost-effective and i would definitely recommend it. It's really well constructed and has some nice aesthetics. Overall, a really nice purchase for my new nas build.



Cons

The issue is not with limited positioning or clearance, as there are other bays from icy dock that don't have this problem. I suspect it's a result of someone offsetting the sata ports upwards by 2 to 2.

The i-stars are superior. But that the only good. It looks neat not is totally un-functional. In a nutshell, it's way over priced.

    The screw holes were off a tad or maybe it was my case

    The nature of metal is it doesnt want to flex the way you want it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Might have to put some muscle into it a bit to get it exactly lined up

    I also wish the sata power was a tad closer together my inline connectors on the wire wouldnt quite reach using the first and second connector so i had to skip one of the them so it took a 3 connector wire with only two of the connectors being used the first and last connector with one in the middle not being used
