I am searching for a DAS solution to replace my 14 TB external HDD. I am trying to decide between these two options (please note that, as I live in Brazil, options here are very limited):

  • Orico DS500-C3: It supports up to 5 HDDs (90 TB total). It is easy to insert the HDDs, with no need of screws (which is a big plus for me). However, it does not support RAID. It has a transfer speed of 5 Gb/s. It is cheaper.
  • Yottamaster Y-Focus FS5C3: It supports up to 5 HDDs (90 TB total). The installation of HDDs require screwing. It supports RAID and has a transfer speed of 10 Gb/s. Also, it looks more robust and seems to have better cooling. But it is more expensive.

Which should I go with? Any experience with them? Will I notice the speed difference?
