Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Interesting Product, Works as I expected.

This device can only ever go to the overall speed of the SATA III Spec which is 6gbps. Minus the overhead of the interface. Keep that in mind. With that said RAID 1 works as intended to give redundency. JBOD needs controller support on the SATA connection your connected to. BIG/SPAN works fine. Now RAID 0, This does increase performance but not overall speed. This does so by allowing the drives paired to have faster access times running together. Makes more of a performance increase for a boot drive. So smaller files can be access faster. But searching can have some added latency on the controller. But total speed can never go over 6Gbps, you need 2 connections over SATA for that. I went from a 500MBs Silicon Power Drive to this and get 450MBs now but the system is snappier and starts faster, Its noticeable but not greatly. I find this better for RAID 0, Or with the use of some clever adapters you can use this in a desktop to add a SATA port :-) . I'm using it to add an additional drive to a mini PC and another to use a few extra mSATA drives I just had lying around in another system for a 2nd boot drive. Hope that helps everyone.

Works great for me in RAID 1.

I was always shy of SSDs of any sort, due to reliability questions. I've also configured many small business servers, so RAID 1 is my preferred choice. This card gives me data redundancy and excellent speed at very good prices for it and mSATA SSD drives, if you shop around. [who doesn't shop around?]

Got this one to install IPFIRE on my firewall using raid1 configuration, OS installed fine (Linux detected the drive) and in 20 minutes it was back in business.

Good for Apple Mac computers

For my SATA external SSD I wanted to try a modern small size RAID Adapter Converter. So I have found the StarTech unit. The initial test with 2 mSATA 500GB SSD showed 2 individual "Drives". Changing to RAID1 was not successful until I formatted each SSD properly to HFSe. After that it was necessary to reformat the Converter. Formatting showed "JMicron RAID1", wich was successful. Afterwards the Converter was usable for backup with the TimeMachine. The "25SAT22MSAT" allows to build an inexpensive , but very small SSD memory up to 2TB. Proper Formatting is the secret!

Works great

Used this to install two Samsung 860 evo mSata drives into my 2012 MacBook Pro. Works fine right out of the gate, no problems whatsoever. I have them configured 'RAID 0', which theoretically is the fastest setup, but, Blackmagic speed test shows read/write at ~450 MB/s, no faster than individual disks would be. But the computer feels faster than it did with a single SSD, so possibly the Blackmagic test doesn't perfectly reflect what's actually going on.

Fake product

500 MB/s is the speed of regular ssd. People buying your product expect twice faster speed with RAID 0. This is a fake product unless you tell us that we are wrong and the RAID 0 built with your product can be something closer to 900 MB/s

Quite Disappointing

I bought this for the RAID feature. It's a joke. I am able to use about half of the available bandwidth of my SATA 3 port. 2 identical Samsung EVO 850 drives as RAID-0 top out at just under 3 Gbps. A single drive performs almost 2 x faster. Using this product represents a waste of about $400AUD Suspect the bottleneck is the crummy J-micron controller.

Disapointing

The electronic board is not fixed in the metal frame at the oposite end of SATA connector and RAID feature is a joke. RAID 0 is 2 times slower than a single drive instead of being 2 times faster! It doesn't worth the money. You will spend 50$ or more for nothing.
