The TERRAMASTER D4-320 is a powerful 4-bay external hard drive enclosure designed for direct attached storage (DAS), not network attached storage (NAS). It offers high-speed data transmission, utilizing the USB 3.2 Gen2 protocol to achieve speeds up to 10Gbps. This allows for rapid data transfer, essential for large files and demanding workflows. When equipped with four 8TB SATA III HDDs, the device can reach an impressive combined read/write speed of up to 1,016 MB/s. For users opting for SSDs, a single 1TB SATA III SSD can deliver read speeds of 510 MB/s.

This versatile enclosure supports a wide range of storage options, from 3.5-inch SATA hard drives to 2.5-inch SATA hard drives and 2.5-inch SATA SSDs. It can accommodate a single hard disk up to 30TB, offering a substantial total capacity of 120TB across its four bays. The D4-320 emphasizes convenience with its plug-and-play functionality, requiring no drivers for setup. It seamlessly integrates with Mac, Windows, and Linux operating systems. Its USB Type-C interface ensures broad compatibility with USB 3.0, USB 3.1, USB 3.2, Thunderbolt 3, and Thunderbolt 4 ports.

Users will appreciate the hot-swappable design, which enables hard disk replacement without the need to power down the enclosure. This feature significantly streamlines data management and transfer processes. Furthermore, the tool-free hard drive tray design simplifies installation and removal of drives. TerraMaster's unique Push-lock mechanism securely holds each drive in place, preventing accidental disconnections.

Operating quietly is another key advantage of the D4-320. It incorporates an intelligent temperature-controlled fan for efficient heat dissipation, maintaining optimal performance. Specialized sound-absorbing panels and vibration damping reduce noise levels by up to 50% compared to previous models. In standby, the noise level drops to a remarkably low 21 dB(A), ensuring a quiet workspace.

Currently, the TERRAMASTER D4-320 is available for $151.99, a notable reduction from its original price of $189.99. This represents a significant saving on a high-performance external storage solution.
