Note: Please ensure the USB-C port on your host supports video output and use the USB-C to C cable, or the HDMI port will not work.

Community Reviews
This is a 4 bay USB C enclosure for spinning SATA drives and bulk storage, with 10Gbps connectivity and HDMI video pass through for laptop presentations. The enclosure can work well for Plex expansion, homelab use, and software RAID or Storage Spaces, and the interface is fast enough for hard drives even if the drives themselves are the bottleneck. The HDMI output depends on the host USB C port supporting video and on using the USB C to C cable. Caveats include JBOD only, no NAS or RAID hardware, extra brackets needed for 2.5 inch drives, and concerns about heat, noise, and occasional disconnects.

Just spend the few extra hundy and get a Synology or QNAP support and reliability.... Drop in the bucket.
Heck, even a Terramaster would be an improvement.
just kidding, I'm forced to buy 8 used 3TB drives on ebay and put them through a PERC H310 because larger drives are ridiculously expensive (literally up 400-500% in one year)
fuggen datacenters.
They do disconnect for a second or so from time to time, but by the time I click on the notice, they pop right back up without any interaction or interruption. Solid choice if you're not looking for a hot swap bay on the cheap to get you the extra storage space for a software raid. Would absolutely recommend. Have only used the PC usb port, plugging it into the other port after software raid is in place, it will not recognize the raid. But once you have it set up, it's good to go.
