So it requires your PC to have display over USBC and then your laptop / PC is connected to this - the HDMI out becomes active.
Community Reviews
The Wavlink RapidFire is a 4 bay SATA enclosure that doubles as a USB C hub with HDMI output, making it appealing for a desk or home server setup. The enclosure can be useful for fast backups, RAID with SSDs, or a Steam Deck style dock, and the individual drive power switches stand out. The HDMI output depends on USB C display support and may only mirror in some setups. The 10Gbps limit, separate 2.5 inch adapters, and reports of noisy cooling, hot drives, and occasional drive detection issues are the main drawbacks.
Common Questions (5)
The HDMI port works as an alternate display over USB-C, so the connected PC must support display over USB-C for it to activate. If the setup already uses an alt-display over USB-C, the HDMI output may not work or may only mirror the existing display.
Yes, it is capped at 10Gbps over USB-C. That is enough for basic storage use, but it is below the 20Gbps many expect for a 4-bay enclosure in 2026.
No, the 2.5-inch adapters are sold separately. That matters if you plan to use 2.5-inch SSDs or HDDs instead of 3.5-inch drives.
Yes, it has individual drive power switches. That lets you power drives on and off separately, which is useful for mixed-use setups and drive management.
It can be noisy because the small fan may run at full speed, and the drives can run hot with three installed. That makes cooling and acoustics a practical concern for home server or HTPC use.

This was called the RapidFire 4 back in 2025 when I had it.
Would enable ultra-fast data backups as well.
