French Door Refrigerators Reviews 2014

2014: bought the original Areca 8050 filled with HGST drives and used primarily for Lightroom/FCPX editing. Zero issues with this RAID. Thunderbolt 1 and see 400-600mb read/write speeds. 2020: Upgrade RAID system for more storage and better performance. After reading/watching all the reviews, I was expecting 800-900mb since my laptop/iMac still thunderbolt 2. RAID 5 with 8x WD Ultrastar providing 1100+mb and I couldn't be happier with these results. For anyone shopping one of these, don't be intimidated by the setup/config that some of the reviews note. It's a little bit of work, but nothing horrible. Honestly, I've had Alexa dongles that were more complicated to setup than this. Also: one of the review sites noted this T3 unit is not backward compatible with thunderbolt2 devices. I'm using the Apple T3-T2 adapter and it's working flawlessly. Thanks Areca for making such a solid performing array!

In addition to what has already been covered in other reviews, I would like to add: Not really a problem but just be aware the door requires opening to at least 120 degrees to allow drawers to slide out to access your equipment. Have been especially pleased with silent operation and quick response to lowering humidity back to setpoint after door has been opened. Holds (3) film cameras, (2) DSLRs, assortment of FD and EF prime lenses 15mm to 400mm and (5) zooms plus (FD) 199A Speedlite, numerous lens hoods, (2) teleconverters; you get the point.

I bought the EcoFlow Delta Pro with extra batteries and a solar panel for emergency backup mostly but it has many other uses. Recently I had a faulty circuit breaker in my home that kept popping the circuit that powers my refrigerators and freezer. Having the Delta Pro allowed me to shut down the house power and work safely on the electrical panel and allow me to troubleshoot to find the faulty breaker and have it fixed. Had my two refrigerators, one 18 cubic, the other 22cubic foot, chest freezer and a couple of lights and a floor fan, all running about 10 hours of normal use, while I had my faulty breaker replaced and had the home service panel serviced for additional problems as well. Only used about 47% of the batteries total charge and probably could have run it the following full day before it would have run out of power. Could of use this unit last year when we lost power for three day in February in Texas. That was a long three days. Now I am prepared for future power outages. Attached are photos of how I set up my unit.

Today's refrigerators have low voltage circuit boards (mine has two)that are susceptible to power surges and outages. This product is small and powerful, and perfect for protecting one appliance. I bought four, one each for the main fridge, the garage fridge, the garage freezer, and a spare.

I have owned many Samsung products. Washers, dryers, refrigerators, and yes, computer equipment. At least a half a dozen SSDs. Never had a problem with any of them. My current system has 2 2TB M.2 SSDs. Nary an issue. Excellent performance, excellent product.

Great quality but the package was missing the french flag

It's a nice set of filters to use in my matte box with french flag.

Worked perfectly in a late 2014 iMac.

I bought my last macbook in 2014 so this is a great upgrade!

Pricey..but most know going into the process of printing at home that the ink is Mickey D's french fries...it's where the money is made. Although cheaper; I've never been interested in trying an off brand. These work every time
