2 x VelociRaptor in this: Does anyone know if 2 WD VelociRaptor drives, which are 2.5" without their mounts but maybe thicker than an SSD, can fit in this?

Don't know about physically fitting, but putting two high spindle speed drives that close to each other seems like a bad idea to me.

I'm going to answer this assuming you know you can repurpose slots (IE: get a kit to mount a 3.5" drive in a DVD slot, mount an SSD on the 3.5" drive sleds, etc). SSD: 2 1TB HD (assuming 3.5" form factor): 3 DVD drive: 2 So yes, 2 SSDs, a 1TB drive (even if it's 2.5", as there are mounting screws to attach a 2.5" drive to a 3.5" sled), and a DVD drive will all fit in this case.

The manual doesn't say. I used a 1TB drive and it worked fine. You can add 2 external drives, but no mention of size limit there. You can map it as a network drive, so you can move content back and forth that way, but slower ofc.

I do not believe that they do. They make a product that comes with 2 x 3TB 2.5" SATA drives but no 4TB drives so I am basing my opinion on what is on their web site that the biggest drives you can put in their enclosure are 3 TB 2.5" form factor drives. I hope this information helps you.

I used 4TB Drives from WDC and Seagate, they work fine. I don't know if 5TB drive would work or not.

Greetings, No, this model does not support a 2.5" drive. The 'H' models will support 2.5" drive expansion; not currently available in the US. Best regards, MITXPC

Yes, I cannot use the sled's lid when using full height drives like the WD Velociraptor, which are similar in size to SAS SFF disks.

You can use regular 2.5" HDDs but you'll want to pay attention to the thickness of the drive. I went with a WD Red 1TB. I don't have the article handy but there is a good writeup out there on the max thickness and even how to mod it for thicker drives.

Same here: 750GB x 2. They're also not RAID 0, so you don't have one drive with 1.5TB, but rather a 750GB C: drive and a 750GB D: drive.

Hi. I don't know, since I mounted a main disk 240 Gb Corsair Force SSD and let a 750 Gb WD Caviar Black for storage I did not looked again in WD offers. This is crap and if it is discontinued much better for all the people who will not waist money for nothing. I let is for storage but disconeccted. I only connet it and save something there from time to time. Regards

3.5" fit without any modification. I have 2 2.5" ssds in mine but you need a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter for it. They sell them pretty inexpensively here on Amazon. Search for "2.5 to 3.5 adapter" and you will see tons.

I own a WD 2TB 2.5" drive. Very few enclosures can handle it - it is 15mm thick. I use mine with a Drobo Transporter, which easily handles 15mm drives.

If you are trying to use this as an internal HDD, you might want to double check on the size there. That's a 3.5" HDD commonly used in desktops; unless you were planning on using this drive in an external HDD rig I would suggest you look into the 2.5" HDDs. *Suggestion: go with &lt;Western Digital Bare Drives 2.5 Inch, Low Profile, 5400 RPM, SATA II, 8MB Cache 500GB Mobile Hard Drive, Blue WD5000LPVT&gt; it's only $3 more ($43.99) than that desktop HDD for double the capacity.

Rocco, I wish that I knew the answer. I have the same question, as I'm interested in purchasing two, of the WD World Edition 2TB, to daisychain them through the USB. Maybe, somebody will know soon?

I'm running 4x1.5TB drives with ZFS RAID-Z and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on a flash drive with 2x4GB 1333. It's been performing very well, no complaints! I'm just not looking forward to when I have to upgrade those drives, at least they were free.

The drive is tall, height may be a problem. You will need a little more than 15mm of vertical space.
