## Description

The NexStar JX, USB 3.2 Gen1x1, 3.5" or 2.5” SATA III HDD/SSD Drive Green Enclosure with eSATA is a redesigned enclosure for easy removal of the drive. It features a hard aluminum case that effectively draws away the heat to keep your hard drive running at optimal temperature. This NexStar JX comes with smart and green features to extend the life of the drive by spinning down when the system goes to sleep thus saving energy when it is not in use. The latest UASP protocol and SATA III 6Gbps support faster transfer and backup of files. We at VantecUSA, built this NexStar JX series to continue the same tradition of the legacy NexStar 3 series that is designed to last and grow with you.

Review: The ease of use, the speed from device to computer is awesome - I bought a cheaper hard-drive enclosure it wouldn't even spin the hard-drive this one work great and very fast I would have to say a great product.
Review: Solid product so far - I put in a 14TB WD Purple drive and am using it as an external eSATA drive for Synology NAS to act as storage for Surveillance Station set up with 6 cameras. I have a couple of fans blowing on it so there is no issue with temperature; the drive reports around 41C. This isn't really part of the review, but might help someone: Surveillance Station does not normally allow for an external drive to be used as storage, but does allow "remote" storage. This is really a terrible oversight on Synology's part and I was very disappointed to learn about this only after purchasing the enclosure. If you search online you will find some workarounds that people did, but I didn't like any of them so I came up with my own. I created a remote storage link that actually points to the local external drive. Now Synology won't let you specify the same IP/hostname as the NAS itself for a remote folder, so you have to create a new DNS entry in your local network environment that simply points to the same device. For example my NAS hostname is simply diskstation, so I added another DNS entry called diskstation_ext that points to the same IP as diskstation. Also, for whatever reason you can only setup a CIFS remote share through "Recording" > "Archive Settings" > "Mount Remote Storage". So what I did after in File Station was to delete the remote folder created by Surveillance Station, and re-create it using the NFS protocol, using the same folder name. You'll want to check the "Mount automatically on startup" option in File Station, and UNCHECK it in Surveillance Station. I don't know if it makes a difference using NFS vs CIFS in this scenario, but NFS is generally considered a more performant protocol. So far, this setup seems stable and persists after reboots without issue.
