This is a 4-bay JBOD enclosure for spinning SATA drives, aimed at simple bulk storage or a DIY NAS setup. The 10Gbps USB-C connection is fast enough for hard drives, and the HDMI port is for video pass-through from a host that supports USB-C video output. It can work well for Plex or software RAID, but the drives and host setup matter more than the enclosure itself. The main cautions are heat, noise, occasional disconnects, and the need to take it apart to install drives, especially 2.5-inch ones that need separate brackets.

Now if only storage didn't cost one soul per drive...

EDIT: needed to scroll down on the Amazon site a bit more.

I guess it makes sense if you only have a laptop, but only if you have USB-C 3.2.
It looks like a neat idea, but just not a good use case for me, I guess.
Now if it was an e-GPU case... But obviously that would cost three times as much.
Where would you get the required brackets?

That one is plastic but a ripoff of the old WD Raptor solid cast metal adapters, of which I still have many because they're cool - pun intended. Of course there are much cheaper/flimsier options on Amazon as well that work just fine.
