What enclosure do you have? Do you like it?

Owc thunderbay 8

I like it in every way except price. It just works, comes back online after a power outage, etc. I don't recall any unscheduled disconnects.

Additional thoughts: I think there are complaints about the fan being loud so I swapped it out when I first got it. I also have it in my basement so I don't hear anything anyway -- HDDs are loud, especially the gold ones

Not who you asked, but I have the OWC Express 4M2 [0]. Four M.2 chips RAIDed in a thunderbolt chassis. Fast as can be. I absolutely love it.
