Hi! I am looking for a 2/4 bay DAS for my Linux system. Narrowed down to these two options:

  1. https://a.co/d/3rEPBRE
  2. https://a.co/d/dIx4TWc

I already got the 4 bay one above, and currently running badblocks on 2 HDDs. I had to run a watch command to make sure the HDDs don't go to sleep, otherwise the test was getting abandoned.

The 4 bay one uses a JMS578 and the 2 bay one uses a ASM1352R. I have been seeing a few posts now that stay away from JMicron chips and they have a lot of issues.

My only requirement is to use this as a DAS on my Linux Server for Plex. Any suggestions if one will be better than other? I don't care about RAID. I want to be around the $50/2Bay budget.
