## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A little price but a nice unit. My roommate and I each have one
*by M***R on August 25, 2014*

A little price but a nice unit. My roommate and I each have one. Running ~36TB on a linux server with no issues using a LSI 8 port SATA controller (for internal) and a LSI 16 port SATA controller (for external). Will eventually get a second one of these

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expensive, but works great.
*by S***E on May 31, 2016*
