About this product

This Acasis USB 3.2 2-Bay HDD RAID Enclosure supports both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA drives, offering flexible storage solutions. It features an aluminum alloy shell with an integrated fan for efficient heat dissipation, ensuring stable operation. Users can switch between four RAID modes for optimized data management, and it boasts a transmission speed of up to 5Gbps via its USB-C 3.2 output interface. The enclosure is compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux systems, providing broad usability.

Our take

I found this Acasis 2-bay enclosure to be a solid choice for creating a multi-drive array. The aluminum alloy build with a cooling fan is definitely a plus for drive longevity, especially if you plan on running it continuously. The flexibility of supporting both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA drives means you're not limited in your choice of storage. The 5Gbps transfer speed via USB-C 3.2 is decent for most applications, though not top-tier for larger file transfers. Setting up the RAID modes was straightforward, offering good options for redundancy or performance.
