External hardware RAID in Sharkoon

The manufacturer Sharkoon has launched two external enclosures, 2-Bay RAID Box and 5-Bay RAID Box. The most perceptive of you have probably already guessed, this is accepting cases two or five hard drives configured in RAID. The 2-Bay RAID Box can therefore accommodate two SATA hard drives in 3.5 inch format, that can be configured as RAID 0 or 1 (and JBOD).

Equipped with a single USB 3.0, external case has also a fan of 70 mm. This model is available at a price of 88 euros. For his part, 5-Bay RAID Box accepts five SATA hard drives, still at 3.5 inch format. They can be configured in RAID 0, 1 / 10, 3 or 5, as well as JBOD. Interface USB 3.0 and eSATA are available, while two 60 mm fans to cool the load discs.

The price is necessarily a little higher since we are talking about 195 euros. Of course, hard drives are not provided ...
