We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Has anyone in the UK purchased this?

Mediasonic PROBOX 4 Bay 3.5” SATA Hard Drive Enclosure – USB 3.0 & eSATA Support 18TB HDD (HF2-SU3S3) 2022 New Chipset https://amzn.eu/d/9DYIlM2

I'm trying to get a drive enclosure in the UK I've seen TERRAMASTER, ORICO, and Mediasonic. I would personally like to get the mediasonic but not sure if import tax would get hit via amazon and also the plug would be US and not UK.

So if you have this in the UK how did you make it work?

Mine was brought in the UK, but they have external power bricks anyway so you can just swap the plug end of the cable

Take a look at icybox as well they are the same, more or less underneath

Oh okay might just bite the bullet, the mediasonic is recommended alot and seems compact enough too.
