It has removable, locking side panels for easy access, venting slots for air circulation, and (2) built-in fans to keep your equipment cool. It comes with three lock assemblies, one for the door and one for each of the side panels if one needs to keep others from tampering with anything.

QNAP One Drive

Next on the list, we've got yet another box that manages to win our hearts. It's the qnap one drive and it's widely considered as box that has the most suitable features. This QNAP has its own operating system. It works just like an USB, it checks constantly the health of the HDD'sWay easy to use, amazing solution for those who don't want to deal with networking. The Individual Drive" mode acts like a port multiplier, allowing a mix of drives that share the same port but operate independently. It provides faster performance than any one of the drives in the array.

The side rails are plastic and less than "stellar. It includes a USB type-c type-a connector cable. This mode is a good compromise between between the speed of RAID 1/0 and the desire to get more storage space from the drives in the array. This is how you get the speed performance increase from RAID.

• Can be configured with its own raid and 'appear' as just one external drive
