I will bite, I have some old SSDs lying around and some VelociRaptors. What is MOQ for Niceday to bring this in?

No problem with that just let us know how many you need, bro.

I have a question, will it work for drives in a RAID? If it does, 4, if not, 2.

indeed its an interesting product. from the product briefs it appears to "Raid1" on the front few Logical blocks on the HDD.
Hence the emphasis on having the optimizing the data b4 using this device.

Any Benchmarks avaliable?

hope you don't mean the Mtron 3.5" SSDs

It doesn't state anything about which brand is compatible. I doubt if they will put a list of which SSDs are. It does only say its compatible with most 2.5" SSDs. 32GB is just right if you ask me.

"Per my explanation on the phone, HDDBOOST cannot support RAID.
When end users use 2.5” SSD via SilverStone HDDBOOST, the SSD will not be as the normal storage function.
It will be used to speed up the system operation via SilverStone HDDBOOST."
