Review: Good with a tiny-brick computer - I've been replacing the big old desktops, towers, and rack-mounts with the small brick computers. They're much more capable, quieter, and lower-power than the old boxes. BUT what about the data on servers? This allowed me to pull the drives from the old servers and connect them to the new "tiny box". USB-3 makes data access reasonably fast, and the transition was very smooth. Power consumption is greatly lowered, so the computer room is cool now without AC. Storage capacity is the same as the old servers, with vast speed and performance increases. It made a great conversion and utility bills went down too. Win-win.
Review: purchased used from desertcart (then new) - Update: New unit worked. Disks showed up and smart info was reliable unlike before. Existing Data was accessible. I'm guessing the used one I originally received had failed. It's only been running an hour, but is a night and day difference so far. No clue about the disks going to sleep, or the stories I keep hearing about needing firmware updates. If I experience any issues I'll report back. Right now I'm just running two disks mounted. However I plan to do a software raid or zfs or something. Added 3 stars. The screws are different, better. The carriages are metal on the new one, and I'd swear the old ones were plastic. I rsynced 5.2TB onto each disk, then compared them. Sustained reads on two drives was around 200MB each. The entire usb bus reset while doing that load test (a compare).....Two reads on two sectors, had issues on one drive before the reset. A second read after the rest was fine. Not going to blame this enclosure yet, but this is the first time I've seen these drives complain. Once I have all four enterprise drives, I'll do some real testing. some reads/s sdb 1638.00 204.62 0.00 0.00 204 0 0 sdc 1637.00 204.62 0.00 0.00 204 0 0 For the curious.

I'll take a look at those sectors I guess. They wouldn't have remapped on a read. Yottamaster had reached out to me after my initial review on the used unit, offering a refund. desertcart had already accepted my return and sent a new one. But it's appreciated they appear proactive. So that's great! I don't mind giving this thing a shot, and hopefully it'll work out for me. If you are just wanting to mount a few drives, I'm already confident it should be fine for that. If it's not then check your cable or something. I wish I had not seen that little error :) But also I have zero experience with these usb jbod enclusures, and I was honestly just glad to see what appeared to be correct smart data :) With any luck, 4 drives should never saturate this usb-c link, so I'll see what happens. Finally, I considered getting the sabrent enclosure. However it had four soft power buttons. This one is a single switch. This enclosure makes much more sense to me for it's intended purpose. ==================================== My disks both were viewable, but all partitioning was gone. smart information was intermittently available. I was unable to see the existing data on the drives, or successfully create a partition. The drives were actually fine *save for the one that I attempted to format in this enclosure. I must have received a bad unit? Trying to decide if I should try again or go somewhere else. I liked that powers on all the disks.

## Features

- 【Daisy Chain 270TB Capacity】This 5-bay USB-C hard drive enclosure supports 5 hard drives with a maximum capacity of 90TB (18TB x 5). Utilize the dual 10Gbps USB-C ports to daisy chain 3 FS5C3 or other daisy-chaining devices (like hard drive enclosures, PSSDs), which means the overall capacity could reach up to 270TB, offering enterprise-class storage capacity.
- 【10 Gbps Ultra-fast Speed】This 5-bay USB-C HDD enclosure adopts the USB3.1 Gen2 (Type-C) protocol with a transfer speed of up to 10Gbps. With a single SSD in place, the read speed achieves 517 MB/s (SATA III 1TB SSD). When outfitted with five SSDs, the collective read/write speed can peak at 1,016 MB/s (combining read/write speeds from five 1TB SATA III SSDs). The speed will vary based on the performance of the hard drive and the computer host. Compatible with Windows and Mac OS.
- 【For 2.5"/3.5" SATA HDD & SSD】Yottamaster 5 bay hdd enclosure designed for both 2.5 inch SATA and 3.5 inch SATA HDD/SSDs. Its removable aluminum trays facilitate easy installation and replacement of drives. The included screws securely fix the hard drives to the trays, effectively protecting them from shock and interface damage.
- 【Aluminum-Alloy Enclosure & Cooling Fan】The 5-bay USB-C SATA hard drive enclosure features a stylish aluminum casing and an 80mm low-noise cooling fan. Equipped with front and rear cooling holes, this 5 bay das hdd enclosure ensures efficient heat dissipation and encourages air convection, effectively maintaining cool temperatures for your drives during prolonged use.
- 【Non-RAID DAS】The FS5C3 model is a non-RAID version and does not support hardware RAID. To set up RAID, you can establish software RAID using the tools within your system. Mac OS users can utilize the RAID Assistant in Disk Utility. Yottamaster RAID Manager software is only compatible with RAID version das.
- 【Auto-sleep Function】Yottamaster 5-bay enclosure automatically goes into sleep mode after 10 minutes of data inactivity; this can be disabled. To keep it awake, use our sleep firmware or third-party software like Amphetamine, KeepAliveHD, or Prevent Disk Sleep (which writes a 1KB file every 5 minutes to prevent sleep mode).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well built, and totally worth the money
*by K***W on October 28, 2023*

I purchased this enclosure to replace a 3-year-old Sabrent DS-4SSD enclosure that's connected to a Raspberry Pi which I'm using as a NAS. The Sabrent was still working great, but the fan was getting loud and not blowing much air any more; it wasn't that quiet to begin with, actually. Though that enclosure was trayless, that might be the only advantage over this one. This one is very well built. It's lightweight but still feels very solid. The fan is silent as advertised, and the installation is trivial. I'd highly recommend this enclosure to anyone in the market. In addition, the customer service is second-to-none! Every email I've sent to them, and I've had several questions before andafter purchase, has gotten an answer within a few hours. Perhaps the only downside to this enclosure, as others who have also wanted to disable the sleep function have already noted, is the lack of clarity in doing so. For clarity, here are my instructions: 1. When you visit the Yottamaster downloads page, there are two downloads that look like they could do the job. They both might, but the one I ended up using after being instructed by Yottamaster customer service was the rar file, not the zip file: Sleep Time Setting - Firmware Update for FS4C3 FS5C3.rar. You may need 7Zip or similar to open this if your version of Windows doesn't yet have native rar support. 2. This package actually requires installation; you can't just update the firmware without installing the application. So, run the setup program inside the rar file. 3. You'll also need the firmware, the .bin file, inside the rar file. I copied it to my desktop for easy retrieval later. 4. Very important: you must have a drive in the enclosure before you update the firmware. Otherwise, Windows won't detect it, nor will the firmware application. Customer service suggested I back up the drive before doing this, too, just to be safe. Once the drive is installed, connect the enclosure to power and to your computer's USB port. Make sure you connect the cable to the "main" port and not the "hub" port on the enclosure. 5. Now, open the application that you installed, VL715MPTool. A little pop-up should come up showing that the enclosure is connected. If it doesn't, it didn't detect your enclosure. 6. In the tool bar, click on settings. 7. In the settings window, click on open file in the firmware section. Navigate to the .bin file that you extracted from the .rar archive, and click open. 8. Back in the settings window, click OK. 9. Now, click the run or auto-run button. If you don't see the run button in the toolbar, you can find it in the functions menu off of the menu bar. Or you can just use the shortcut key: ctrl+a. 10. If all went well, the pop-up window should show that one update was attempted and one update passed. You can now close the application and begin using your Yottamaster enclosure without the drives going into sleep state.
