StarTech.com 2-Bay 3.5" HDD Enclosure - RAID - USB 3.1 - SATA - USB-C/USB-A is rated 3.70 out of 5 by 3.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from RAID1 working If you want to set RAID1 configuration. 1. Set switch (1-off, 2-on) 2. push RAID reset switch over 10 seconds.(This tact push switch is near by set switch) You don't need to wait so long time. Performance is fine depending on disk R/W speed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from RAID1 is not working Got is brand new from Amazon. Installed 2x4Gb Seagate ironwolf to use as RAID1. Setup switch 1 to OFF and switch 2 to ON, however, it shows two independent drives instead of one mirrored. Tried to test RAID0 - Switches ON/OFF and it shows as one 8 Gb disk - it works. Tried to test SPAN - Switches ON/ON and it also shows one 8 Gb disk - it works. Tried to test JBOD/PM - Switches OFF/OFF and it shows two independent disk Tried to test RAID1 - Switches OFF/ON and it shows as two independent disks - not working as advertised.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 10 Gb/s raid 3.1 external enclosure This one is the best because it has usb 3.1 type B connector, the 3.1 type A is too fragile even if you never move it. 10Gb/s is the only way to go if you're using SSDs. I use these with some 3.5 -> 2.5 converters for SSD. Own 5 for over 2 years, never an issue.
