Product Description
ACASIS 40Gbps Hybrid Storage Enclosure/Dock – 2× HDD & 2× NVMe SSD Bays
Acasis 40Gbps 4-Bay Hybrid HDD NVMe Enclosure combines two NVMe SSD bays and two SATA HDD bays into a single, space-saving chassis so you can work from fast media and archive to high-capacity drives without swapping devices. The enclosure’s 40Gbps Thunderbolt/USB4 interface delivers ultrafast transfers for large media files and backups, while hardware RAID modes let you choose speed, redundancy, or simple JBOD capacity. An integrated 8K-capable DisplayPort output supports high-resolution monitoring for editing or playback, and a temperature-controlled fan keeps drives cool under sustained workloads. Ideal for video creators, backup-focused teams, and workstation users who need mixed-tier storage in one reliable box.
Features and Benefits
-
Up to 76TB maximum raw storage capacity for large project files and long-term backups.
-
40Gbps Thunderbolt/USB4 interface for ultra-fast data transfer and low-latency workflows.

Product Q&A
-
Q: Can SATA and M.2 NVMe drives be used in the same RAID array?
A: According to the product FAQ, the hardware RAID does not support mixing SATA and NVMe drives in one array. Software RAID can combine them if needed. -
Q: Can I control the cooling fan manually?
A: No. The fan runs automatically when internal temperature exceeds 40°C (104°F) and adjusts speed based on system temperature. -
Q: What maximum DisplayPort resolution and refresh rates are supported?
A: The built-in DisplayPort supports up to 8K@60Hz and also supports 4K@144/120Hz and various high refresh-rate 2K modes (exact support depends on host GPU and monitor). -
Q: Which RAID modes are supported?
A: The enclosure supports RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD, and PM hardware modes. -
Q: Which hosts are supported for the 40Gbps connection?
A: The product page states it is only compatible with USB4 and Thunderbolt 3/4/5 hosts. - Q: Why does each NVMe slot only reach ~20Gbps on this 4-bay hybrid enclosure?
- A: This 4-bay hybrid enclosure is designed with a shared Thunderbolt 40Gbps architecture. Due to internal PCIe lane allocation, each NVMe slot is limited to a maximum of ~20Gbps, even when only one NVMe drive is installed. This design prioritizes stability and multi-drive operation rather than peak single-drive NVMe performance. For better NVMe performance within this model, we recommend using two NVMe drives in a software RAID 0 configuration to better utilize the available bandwidth, or RAID 1 for data protection.
