Did you find it helpful?

These bays say they handle SATA III/SAS II ; however they seem to be able to do better than that, bare in mind I am no hardware expert - but running a test between the two servers on my network I seem to be getting better than just SAS II. My 9361-8i is reporting the drives attached as being SAS III and transferring 9GB across my network I am getting write speeds of 200MBps on a single JBOD HGST 4Tb drive - that is damned impressive. As I said I am no expert when is comes to SAS but while this may not claim to be a SAS III interface it seems at least in my case to be handling it beautifully - I can't wait to see what a Raid 6 array can do...view more

Noisy Fans

This sets a new standard of how noisy a fan can be, and the provided screws couldn't secure the rack in my case.

Otherwise, it works. I guess its OK, but not amazing.
