So easy to set up
Took me less than 1 hour from start to finish setting it up - it would probably have taken less had I *really* read the instructions ;-) - my bad ! And also their *bad* of a couple of other reviewers who obviously didn't really read the sheet too.Mine is set at RAID 1 and I'm using a couple of spare Samsung SSDs I had available. as it will be used to store image files on photo trips and the redundancy is great in case there is an issue. BTW, within the 1 hour assembly took I did do a disk failure check to ensure the RAID had worked.No problems with my backup software (FreeFileSync) recognising the device and I find RAID 1 throughput more than acceptable.

An excellent dual bay external case, albeit a bit pricey
Having purchased 2 similar products before, I was after a new product but this time I wanted "pure" usb-c transfer speeds and wanted good-looker for my desk. The MiniPro RAID V3 USB 3.1 Type-C, is an excellent product and is unbelievably fast! Although I have used external raid solutions with two Samsung 860 pro SSD's, putting the SSD's in this drive with a type-c to type-c cable (your PC/Laptop must support it) makes this external drive, astonishingly fast! The quality of the product is quite good, but I think its overpriced. Thus, the 4 stars, instead of 5 stars.

Works well
Works well. A plus for supplied screwdriver and power adapter.Only minor confusion - you really can't tell if your RAID setting is valid? The manual states you should press the putton for 5-7 seconds, after setting the DIP switches. I have RAID-1 and the D1 and D2 flashes like both disks are connected (as RAID1). I will have to assume it is correct.The enclosure is set with 2 x WD Blue 2 TB SSDs.

Great external drive
Great compact external drive, host powered, and allegedly works with big drives, not tested that bit yet. Really fast too, I’m impressed.

Used with 2 x high capacity SSDs (2x4TB Samsung Evo and 2x7.5TB Micron ). Only used it on USB 3.0, but very fast. Both averages over 300MBps sustained read and write as RAID 0. You need to use the external PSU if connecting to USB 3.0.
