They definitely transfer data pretty fast. I set both SSDs as two independent RAID0 (which basically is a JBOD setup). The P2 R4 definitely reads them and identifies them correctly as SSDs along with their respective specs. But it worked perfectly with the ones I got. If the head is too curved upward, it will protrude and collide with the drive below it in the trays. The ones that worked were M3 x 5mm with a flat head and cones toward the screw. Or MG03ACA200 (3rd) Toshiba - which I know I'll get 5 yrs warranty on from a vender I have used many times over the years. Kind of a crappy situation to be in all because of Promise.Īt this point I am going to go with either the
BLAXK MAGIC MULTIDOCK MAC PLUS
I'm not happy about that at all, plus it will probably be impossible to get a replacement if one fails. Not the 5 yrs they originally did when they were first released. I located some HUA722020ALA330's (the best drive on the list i think - SATA 3, 32 MB ) but I think they only carry a 1 yr warranty at this point (possibly because only 3rd party vendors have them). So I have gone back an forth many times about sticking to the compatibility list or not. Let alone a vender that would ship to Canada (additional headache for me). I spent many hours yesterday trying to find the ancient and few enterprise class drives on the list.
The Promise compatibility chart for the P2 is horrible. I have an empty diskless p2 r4 - waiting for HDD's. Getting drives for the Promise2 R4 is a bit of a gong show.
