I cannot recommend Sabrent enclosures. I bought a 10-bay and a 5-bay “docking station” with about ten days of each other and at about the 30-day mark they both died within a couple hours of each other. Fortunately, Amazon refunded my money for both of them, even the 10-bay which was 34-days old when it died. Those devices dying, along with 2 USB hubs that were DOA, were enough to sour me on Sabrent for good. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find any other enclosures that will support 20TB drives. I’ve got 9 of them and need to find an enclosure that works. I’m running out of space, quickly. Thinking of buying an 8-bay Mediasonic but it, nominally, only supports 18TB drives. I’m wondering if that’s a hard and fast limit because I have one of their 4-bay enclosures and it seems perfectly happy with 20TB drives. So, the search continues. . .
