not a fan of these enclosures one bit. I have two of them in raid 5 and they frequently unmount themselves and beep extremely loudly until turned off and back on again. No apparent problem with the array as they mount up again right away and the fans appear to be spinning. Do these new ones have any way too silence the alarm inside them that frequently goes off for no reason?
The beeping usually indicates a failed or failing fan on the units. For troubleshooting assistance please contact our Technical Support team by phone at 1(800)275-4576, via email or live chat.
Would like to see USB 3.0 also.
I think it’s a good time.
Will there be an update or a newer product that includes USB 3.0 or Thunderport? Have the Qx2 now, but would love to see a USB 3.0 version at the very least.
I’m sorry, but we can’t divulge information regarding the feasibility, development status or projected release date of future products.
When we do come out with new products, they will always be announced here on the OWC Blog right away, so bookmark us to be among the first informed on new products from OWC and Newer Technologies.
