I have a love/hate relationship with OWC. On one hand my TB8 RAID enclosure and SoftRAID were fairly easy to set up and use... I really appreciate having a JBOD solution… on the other hand, the support and warranty is mediocre. With my warranty covered (1YR) TB8, I dealt with months of sending them error logs and they couldn't isolate the issue. It also has abhorrent noise levels making it impossible to use on or under desk (I have to route a 10' TB4 cable into a closet). They made me pay $100 UPS to send the unit to them for diagnosis and found nothing before shipping it back. They didn't replace it like they should have.

what a huge oversight to not have this enclosure in a blade form factor where a set of fans can be used for cooling drives + cpu + hardware. Instead the drives are left to a basement caddy with no airflow

For a small studio, the built-in switch is a massive advantage so for portable use. But for the price, I am not sure that it's worth it against a far more open solution from QNAP like the TS-h1290FX that can use SATA or u.2 drives (you can add up to 1TB of RAM and 732TB of pure NVME storage and 3 25Gbit ethernet ports with link aggregation) .OWC needs to be more transparent abut the technology, but maybe there is a good reason not to do it.

Crazy high priced solutions- for wealthy u-tubers with too much money.

There's something for ever group out there. One of my NAS is an HP computer that someone throwed to the trash and I saw it on my way to work 😂😂😂😂
