I already have 2. They're functional. Haven't put them under significant load yet. I've got two each with two 256GB SATA m.2 drives, and two additional 500GB SATA SSDs, in a RAIDZ About what you'd expect. 500MB/sec per link. I had to put them into RAID0 mode, because SAS doesn't support SATA PMP. So they wouldn't work as JBODs.
Used this adapter in a fairly new Lenovo computer and found that the speed gains were impressive. This adapter is easy to use. This is partially because it is hard to mess us M.2 installs as they only fit one way. I set the jumpers to span as for this purpose I just wanted one big drive out of the 2 I installed. Everything went without a problem and I was running very quickly. Overall this is a good adapter
This is an excellent device that was easy to setup. It even came with a small screw driver. I replaced my hard drive in my laptop with it and immediately noticed a significant increase in speeds.
I always thought that upgrading a laptop with an M.2 drive would be a long way off, but it seems like you blink and it's time! Now I don't have to worry about what to do with that smaller drive, I can hand-me-down to another machine with a standard SATA bay. The adapter itself is very well designed and equipped; you can put any physical size ‘drive' into either of the 2 slots, and it feels very sturdy and secure. I didn't bother with the RAID ability since 2 drives suit me just fine, but it's good to know it's there available down the road! I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review
This device is good for Windows or Linux computers but for Macintosh it is awful, I bought one and did the raid 0 on two Toshiba 128 gb with APFS and got and average sequential read speed of 8~9mb and 234mb write. But on my Windows I did get read speed of 1400mb and write 240mb.
2x 1TB WD Blue SATA ssd's building the array seems to take forever?
I bought this to set up a resilient RAID 1 system, and it works well. However, the only way to confirm it's working is to write to the array, shutdown, remove one drive, reboot and then see if the file you wrote is still there. Then, repeat for the second drive. The problem is that using hardware RAID means there is no way of knowing when one drive has failed - the only time you will know there is a problem is when both drives have failed and then it's too late. What's required is a simple utility program to show the status of the disks in the array. If that were available I'd be very happy with this product and give it 5 stars but now it is much less useful. Because of this I cannot give this a good rating. It works, but I need to know that it works!
been toying this for several days even with the excellent technical support it will let me configure as Span used disk part & 2 different manufactures m.2 drives (2) 256 GB (2) 500GB when I set the raid in jbod mode raid 1 or concentation mode it reboots my PC have tried it on 3 different machines 15 year old machine 9 year old machine & a new machine im building same result it will see a single drive in the other raid modes in either slot but not in jbod or raid1 precisely why I bought these for the raid ability had them a few weeks am waiting for another brand to arrive today 06-26-2020 been purchasing startech products for as long as I can remember this has been a bust & a disappointment lots of hours wasted with no solution
I've been looking at this adapter for some time now and finally decided to buy one together with two Western Digital 1TB M2 blades. I wanted it set up as JBOD so I can just see two 1TB volumes in a MacBook Pro. Both blades will work but only individually. Surely the RAID capability is this adapter's biggest feature but as others have found, it only works with another adapter. Why is this not made clear in your advertising blurb on Amazon? Now I have to repackage everything and get a refund. Abysmal product I'm afraid and Startech needs to up its game and deal with this issue.
I was so interested in using two different size, different manufacturer M.2 SSD's in my one SSD slot laptop. I thought it was just plug-and-play, but the second SSD never appeared listed in a windows installation session, even using DISKPART. So I thought it was a configure-first issue, and bought a SATA to USB adapter. Only a waste of money. The device can be configured and seen as SPAN (one large drive made of the sum of the two physical drives) or as individual drives if they're alone in any of the slots, but as soon as they're put together and configured in JBOD mode, only the drive connected in the slot #1 is viewed by the OS. Such dissapointing and a waste of time and money. Bought some time ago, I don't think I can return it
