About this product
The Mediasonic PROBOX 4 Bay enclosure provides external storage for up to four 3.5" SATA hard drives, supporting a maximum capacity of 32TB.

Our take
This Mediasonic PROBOX is quite a substantial unit for anyone serious about external storage. With support for four 3.5" drives and a hefty 32TB maximum capacity, it's perfect for large media libraries or extensive backups. The inclusion of both USB 3.0 and eSATA ensures you're getting good data transfer speeds. I appreciate the metal construction for durability and cooling, which is essential when running multiple drives. It's a bit on the heavier side, as expected for a metal 4-bay unit, but that's a small trade-off for its robust features and broad platform compatibility.
