Please make an update video about the NAS expansion
I have one of these and it's fantastic the reason why there is a market something like this is because there is a growing segment of computer users who are becoming data Hoarders😈 which is a good thing overall but the problem with being a data hoarder today is most PC cases on the market are lacking in mounting points for hdds so until we have gargantuously large m.2 this is the way to go
If you don’t mind me asking, what operating system do you use this with?
@@brianhecimovich4488 I use Linux but it will work with Windows or Mac OS as well
Super helpful, thank you!!
Brilliant info as always man! Sure, storage isn't sexy but the whole world of computing depends on it and geeks like us that take it seriously!
Thanks for sharing!
Interesting product I would buy in future, I bought a cheap 4 bay Icy Box JBOD as another back up for my Synology NAS several months ago, Had I have known about a 10 bay like this I would have got this instead, Never enough storage! ;)
Definitely an interesting product
I love storage devices and 10G networking :)
Why are there no review showing the darn thing running? I want to hear the fan/s, how loud are they, I want to see how easy it is to get HDD out but somehow, all the reviewers I've seen just points at it and reads the features that I can see on the box :(
"How arrogant was that?" 😆
Thanks for the video!
One of this sort of external bays combined with something like storage pool (mixing of and expansion with different drives) in win server with deduplication, and one got themselves a pretty nice way to store large amounts of media or backups etc that does not require massive simultaneous access.
Thanks! A lot of these boxes put the drives to sleep after a minute, which is bad. What is the sleep situation with this unit?
very interested in the expansion test with a qnap nas
~$599 is indeed a bit steep for a non-RAID 10 bay external enclosure but the USB 3.2 gen 2 speed makes up for some of it. Still, for my money I would just go with the Syba 8 bay external USB 3.0 enclosure SY-ENC50119 (JBOD) for less then half the price at ~$250 USD. You could save ~$100 and still buy two yielding a total of 16 drives. So while slower, it’s worth pointing out that USB 4 is basically upon us, which, technically makes this 10 bay model comparably slow too by orders of magnitude.
Also MediaSonic has an 8 bay USB-C RAID box of the same 10Gbs speed currently at about ~$399.
Cheers though, looking forward to any follow up videos .
It's extremely steep
thanks for the heads up on the Syba 8 Bay, sounds good.
Wonderful review and hello from Edinburgh. Im not a techie, wondering I have a bunch of SSDs that I must plug into my computer one by one to find archived files. Is this product youre reviewing able to be plugged into my ethernet via router that can sit in my utlility room, without having a computer attached, but where I can still access files over my network?
I'd like to know how noisy the rear fans work and whether the fans can be replaced by other silent fan.
Nice review. I like Sabrent products. If you used windows to build an array, what happens if you need to take this to another PC like maybe a laptop? Can the existing array be imported and accessed?
I had a software Raid 0 on 2 PCIe Intel drives in my windows 7 machine. I added a new windows 10 drive and dual boot the system. The windows 10 side sees the 2 drives with the software raid. I would therefore think that it would see it. Of course I could be wrong.
This looks like or would be a great idea for those with mini itx pc's. Mount it under the desk or possibly figure out a way to use it as a mount to something..but also a vesa mount for your monitor. There but out of the way
If you got a bunch of drives which are already almomst full, if i get this would it be as easy as plug and play or would i need to wipe the drive
Would it be a crazy idea to combine this with an intel NUC, install unraid on the NUC and have a very inexpensive and easily expanded NAS?
Did you do it? Because I was thinking about doing it with my unused beelink lol
Do you have a Raid software you suggest? for Mac users, that is not a SoftRaid? thanks for your input.
Thinking of expanding my current custom NAS. Please let me know how this works. I only have about 6 users.
With a software raid, is it safe to turn the drives on 1 by 1? Do they need to all power up simultaneously?
I know this is a 2 year old vid, but just curious did you run any testing for its write and read capabilities and the setup for Raid configuration?
I actually find storage exciting, not just necessary. :) I would love a DAS but...
Man, I really hate how overpriced these things are (and it can't even do RAID on its own?). There's PC cases that can hold that many drives, and cost 3 times less. It just seems very illogical to me to pay for something like this. But the problem with building another system is the power consumption from the CPU.
More jbod videos please
that hard foams so hard that it vibrated my glass table
Can this be used as extra storage on a Truenas System, for example with the drives in a 5 Vdev config with each Vdev a mirrored set?
Also interested in this. Truenas gets squirrelly with dodgy Chinese usb chipsets
Will you answer me sir! 10-Bays, do each bay can read 20TB Capacity of HDs? What is the maximum capacity of HDD for each bay that it can read?
No limit
Does this work as a sole source for HDDs when setting up a mini pc as NAS host using TrueNAS Scale?
I don’t think TrueNAS likes usb attached storage
Did you hook ir up to a nas yet?
interresting+
i’m sorry , i’m late to the party , this enclosure is something special , how do I use it as a expansion bay for Qnap and use the software rate on the Nas. Maybe run virtual station and use a Linux software read. with the 5 bay, instead of the 10 bay.
Did the software test ever happen? Quick search of videos doesn't pull it up.
I am waiting for someone to use a Raspberry Pi and make this or something like it a networked NAS.
Does it shutdown automatically when you shut the computer down?
Please check if this product works with nas 920+
Next time show inside box, that chipset is used and etc. More technical stuff!
I love Sabrent products but I have found that their multi-drive enclosures do not allow you to identify individual disks. They all show up as Sabrent something or other. I can’t imagine trying to figure out which disk is which.
i own the sabrent 4 bay enclosure. it acts as a JBOD enclosure. All hard drives have their own names. so I'm not sure what you're talking about.
@@BryanMiraflor That’s not how mine showed up last year but I moved away from them. They all listed as the same name as Sabrent.
no followup review after you've used it?
I have to press the power button for a drive on my unit for about 3 seconds for it to turn off. Is that normal? I assume maybe it is being a soft button, but it surprised me.
Seems like it would be. You dont want accidental knocks to immediately power off a drive while in use.
DOES IT SUPORT A 20 TB External Hard Drive
can this be atached to a synology Nas and share this disks over DSM?
Yes but HDD should be formated as ( EXFAT)
Overpriced. It should only worth $299.
I'm having trouble connecting it to SABRENT 10 bay hard drive docking
WILL THIS WORK WITH QNAP NAS TS-453D AS A JOB
I can leave that thing 24/7 connected?
What's the max capacity in terabytes?
Is this the same as Icy Box IB-3810-C31?
Icy Box or ICY DOCK?
No uasp support?
Can multiple units be chained together?
no, they cannot be daisy chained together.
I wish you would mention auto-power-on-after-power-loss in your videos. This unit does *not* turn back on. So let's say that your server shuts down due to UPS getting low, then eventually cuts power to the external enclosure. Power resumes, UPS turns on, and server turns on. All your storage is offline until you individually power on each bay manually. That should be a no-go for nearly everyone. The mind-blowing part is none of the eSATA units I've owned, and many others I've read up on actually work the proper way either. Seems like a massive gap in functionality.
2x ORICO Tool-Free 5 Bay Docking Station is much cheaper
It would be a terrible idea to make a RAID out of a USB jbod enclosure. Every read, write, and parity check would have to transverse the usb cable.
This type of enclosure is more suited to HDD bitcoin Miners like CHiA but not at $599 =)
I bought this for my games, I have over 122TB worth of gaming files at the moment. From Steam to my MASSIVE emulation library, I wanted a JBOD that could just sit either on my computer desk or bring it to my couch and use it there. It runs perfectly fine, games run great even the newer stuff. I run the new MW2022 and GTA5 heavily modded with no issues.
@@knowledge4741 Ya, JBOD is the key selling point for this type of device. You have full SUB3 speeds and bandwidth. A RAID3-10 over USB would be an unnecessary risk and eat your bandwidth by sending duplicate info back and forth every time data is read or written
its an unboxing more than a review
Nah, stick with the NAS Qnap or Synology I think
apples vs oranges
Both the 5-bay and the 10-bay JBOD enclosures are garbage. 30 days after installing them, they both died within a couple of hours of each other. After extensive troubleshooting, I determined that it was, indeed, the boxes that were defective. Sent them back for a refund. I’ll never buy a Sabrent product again. Crap!
Where did you buy them from
Thunderbolt3 or GTFO.
Seriously, only 100 Mbps per drive, get the F outta here with that noise.
Yes for $599 it must support Thunderbolt port.
@@KelvinKMS sata3 can deliver up to 600 MB/s per drive, but consumer nas drives do about 200~300. So with 10x drives and 10mbps it's a significant performance penalty.
Don't buy these. They have a bug where they make certain HDDs appear a SSDs to Windows. Sabrent is aware of the issue, but refuse to issue a firmware update.
Which hdds show up as ssds
