Review: Excellent little unit. - I had a similar unit to this from a different company and finally got sick of it trashing the drives and purchased this as a replacement. I kind of wish I'd bought one of these to start with. It has been sitting on my desk with five 6tb drives humming away pleasantly since I unpacked it and no sign so far of any adverse behaviour. The LEDs are unobtrusive, the power button responsive and data transfer more than satisfactory. As soon as I have the spare cash I will be buying a couple more to replace my other bays as this one not only seems more reliable, it's more user friendly. The primary difference with this one compared to my other stacks is that the hard drives need to be fixed into caddies. All you need is supplied, the caddies, screws, a screw driver, and it only takes a couple minutes to fix the drives and slot them home. While the bays cannot be locked shut, the door is quite a positive fix and does not open randomly on it's own. However it is necessary to make sure that it is out of reach of small inquisitive fingers who might think there are treats behind the shiny doors. I also rather like the way RAID works on this unit. You can either have all five drives as individual units or set it up so the first two are a RAID array and keep the last three drives as individuals. Makes things a bit more versatile, and allows you to run the unit as you want, instead of being locked into one choice only. The unit is quite nicely made, with finished edges and no sharp corners or rough edges. My only less than ideal observation is that the drive doors are plastic rather than alloy. I would have preferred that these were made of a more rigid and tougher material. But, that's a small thing at the end of the day, as once you've mounted the drives, there's no real need to be opening and closing the doors regularly. Power up and down is quick and without fuss and the unit runs fairly quietly compared to other similar boxes. The nice thing with this, it that it is relatively unobtrusive. It is designed in such a way that it sites on the desk without climbing in your face, and doesn't have that "big ugly man box" presence that so many other drive bays seem to have. Simple, versatile and compared to my other units - so far reliable. You can't ask for more than that. Overall, I'm very pleased with this item, and won't hesitate to buy another one later on. Review: Terra Master isn’t a Terror Monster - glad I invited it into my home. - Great unit delivered promptly and setup without a problem. Mine is very quiet but will clearly click and clunk a bit as you save to a drive. Extremely cool in operation and for me the setup works well. The first two bays I have set to RAID 1 so that when I save, the file is copied to both drives in a mirrored setup. Bays 3-5 are all single, non-raid drives. The unit accepts any drive. I use one as a backup drive to bay1. Write speeds between bays with Ironwolf 8tb drives is good- around 200mb/s. I purchased an extra bay cassette so that I can remove the backup and store it elsewhere. This gives me redundancy via drives 1&2 and peace of mind via a removable backup updated weekly. I’m planning on installing a SSD in one of the other two spare drives as a sort of scratch disk for direct access and processing. Some have complained of setting up the RAID. Can’t see why turning one screwslot at the rear with a provided mini-screwdriver is a problem myself. I agree with others that instead of four screws to set each drive in its bay slide a tooless solution would be better. However, when you compare this unit’s price to that of competitors, I consider it great value and I’m happier that design costs have saved a bit on form rather than function. The drive bays need to be pressed firmly home as noted in the instruction and I would suggest to anyone who has never installed a new drive that they google it so that you know how to initialise the drive and make it visible on your PC or laptop. To sum up, it’s a cool-running, no nonsense, good value RAID & 3 single drives setup and I’m very happy with it and the buying experience. ## Features - 5-bay RAID storage, compatible with 2.5"/3.5" SATA hard drive or SSD, supports 16TB hard drive, total capacity up to 80TB. (Note: users need to purchase their own hard drives. These are not included. - Unique 2+3 RAID mode: hard drive #1 & #2 can be configured as RAID 0, RAID 1 or Single disk. The remaining drives #3-5 work as single, independent drives. - Adopts real SUPERSPEED USB3.1 (Gen1) Type-C interface, the read/write speed is up to 410MB/s (SSD in RAID 0). - Compatible with Mac, Windows and Linux computers, and also works with the computers possessing the Thunderbolt 3 interface. This is a DAS, NOT a NAS. - D5-300C adopts aluminum enclosure and low-noise fan, which is firm and reliable, of good heat dissipation, and low noise. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B071S6ZCMM | | Best Sellers Rank | 110,986 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 490 in Enclosures | | Brand | TERRAMASTER | | Brand Name | TERRAMASTER | | Colour | silver | | Compatible Devices | PC, Linux, Mac | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 621 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 410 Megabytes Per Second | | Enclosure Material | Aluminium | | Hardware Interface | USB 3.1 Type C | | Hardware Platform | PC, Linux, Mac | | Hardware interface | USB 3.1 Type C | | Hardware platform | PC, Linux, Mac | | Item Weight | 3.08 Kilograms | | Item weight | 3.08 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | TERRAMASTER | | Manufacturer Part Number | DAS | | Material | Aluminium | | Memory Storage Capacity | 50 TB | | Model Number | D5-300C | | Network Connectivity Technology | SATA, USB | | Product Warranty | 2 years | | Supported Devices Quantity | 5 | | The Standard Size of the Hard Drive or the Bay the Hard Drive Is Compatible With (in inches) | 3.5 Inches | ## Product Details - **Hardware interface:** USB 3.1 Type C - **Brand:** TERRAMASTER - **Colour:** Silver Gray - **Hardware platform:** PC, Linux, Mac - **Material:** Aluminium ## Images ![TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay Enclosure Hard Drive Storage (Diskless) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51fMCZsJ2RL.jpg) ![TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay Enclosure Hard Drive Storage (Diskless) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Mlk43xfeL.jpg) ![TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay Enclosure Hard Drive Storage (Diskless) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jELoazhVL.jpg) ![TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay Enclosure Hard Drive Storage (Diskless) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61rZBRsVoyL.jpg) ![TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay Enclosure Hard Drive Storage (Diskless) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51441eBQIzL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work as 5 seperate drives with a windows storage space pool?** A: Yes, you can configure drives 1&2 to be individual drives and all 5 are presented individually to windows to do with as you please. I use Stablebit Drivepool which is considerably superior to Windows storage space for configuring the drives. **Q: Is it possible to use this with OSX software raid rather than the hardware raid?** A: It is recommended to use hardware raid only. The third party software raid is easy to have problems. **Q: Does the pc need a type-c usb port to run this?** A: Hi, no, you can get a usb cable with a type c one end and a normal type a or b the other end. I would make sure the socket on the pc is at least usb 3.0 for the best transfer speeds **Q: Is the read / write speed 410mb/s for each individual disk or is the speed divided by all 5 of them?** A: I have just bought one of these and achieved in excess of 200MB/sec, which I think is likely tio be as good as you will get (many reviews I have seen have also attained similar speeds). Some have talked of the 5Gb/sec limit on USB 3.0, but not noticed the difference between b and B (bits and Bytes). Aside from that, most disks (magnetic disks, not SSDs) will be limited to around 200MB/sec (although this can be exceeded it you are running multiple disks in RAID 0 configuration). ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent little unit. *by P***E on 3 May 2018* I had a similar unit to this from a different company and finally got sick of it trashing the drives and purchased this as a replacement.

Also I planned using the enclosure as a JBOD software array. I had 3 options to use this DAS which is intended for long term archive backups. Option one was to use it with Unraid natively, as someone else has pointed out this will not work well as the two disks that are controlled with the RAID controller do not expose the disk details to unraid. So that would not work. My other option was passing the device through to my virtual machine. Now this might work if your hardware can pass the whole USB interface of your board but for me this will not work as in linux it was impossible to separate out the controllers for the disks into separate entities. So my remaining plan for this was to use it with MS Storage Spaces and created a RAID 1 array (so one big disk). This so far is working well and has worked for my backup purposes. Have also kept one disk bay free for disk testing and have completed 3 disk tests so far. I tested performance by copying the same 10gb file to 2 disks simultaneously from my PC while also simultaneously copying the same file between 2x disks on the box. For me that resulted in all 4x disks transferring at their maximum transfer speed (about 150MB/s). So for me the performance was ample. So far after quite heavy use in a short space of time I have had no errors or issues with transfers / disks / etc. Also would mentioned that using with Win10 the drive works natively and spins down the disks when not in use and spins down all disks when you shutdown / hibernate or standby. ## Frequently Bought Together - TERRAMASTER D5-300C USB3.1 (Gen1) Type C 5-Bay RAID Enclosure Support RAID 0/1/Single Exclusive 2+3 RAID Mode Hard Drive RAID Storage (Diskless) - Seagate BarraCuda, 8 TB, Internal Hard Drive, SATA 6 Gbit/s, 3.5", 5400 RPM, 256 MB Cache for Desktop PC (ST8000DM004) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/50720983-terramaster-d5-300c-usb3-1-gen1-type-c-5-bay](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/50720983-terramaster-d5-300c-usb3-1-gen1-type-c-5-bay) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-08-02*
