Good deal, good product October 17, 2008 There isn't much to say. This works as it should. Speeds seem good. Easy to install the drives. Nice array of connectivity options. Good deal for a simple piece of tech.

Flawless. Looks beautiful next to my Mac.
The bay takes 2 drives, it can be configured to be JBOD (Just a bunch of disks) in which both drives appear separately, or RAID 0, 1. I ran it with just 1 drive in there for a time, and that worked flawlessly, later I added a second (in JBOD Mode) and it worked perfectly as well.
the FW 800 interface is nearly as fast as the internal SATA on my MB Pro, I have booted the OS from it.
In short it's a fantastic enclosure, and a GREAT DEAL, considering that you can get up to 1.4TB into it. just by purchasing your own hard drives. It far out weighs any of the pre-built configurations you might run across from a price / performance perspective.
The only criticism, is that the fan is constantly running when it is on, I'd of rather seen them include a temperature monitor to kick the fan on when it was needed, as it is a little noisy compared to the deadly quite of my Mac.
