October 25, 201114 yr Hi guys. before i spend money. can anyone confirm that this drive bay will be ok with unraid. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Icy-IB-555SSK-Dual-Channel-Backplane/dp/B002BLZ8TO/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_2 Thanks in advance
October 25, 201114 yr That will work fine. It only provides power, cooling and quick access to the drives. As such it is transparent to any OS. That said, it supports SAS drives and SATA drives.
October 25, 201114 yr Author Thanks for confirming. Think i am going to purchase this then on friday. Craig
October 26, 201114 yr Author Silly money! Consider something from http://www.xcase.co.uk/ Hello. The four bay iStar is 80 pounds and the Icy Box is 97 pounds for five drives. Apart from the differnce of 10 UK pounds is there something i am missing that you think is better?

November 8, 20232 yr Thanks. In case the person I was replying to does not see this, are there any affordable 3 in 2s? Also, if it's useful, I used to run that FatCage back in 2006 and it worked fine for me. Edited November 8, 20232 yr by cinereus
