External storage: OWC Express 4M2 could be a perfect compromise

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://eclecticlight.co/2026/02/09/external-storage-owc-express-4m2-could-be-a-perfect-compromise/

<p>Many of us have more USB4 and Thunderbolt devices than our Macs have ports. In my case, I need to have four external NVMe SSDs connected to my Mac mini M4 Pro with its three ports, one of which is already committed to its Studio Display. One solution is a Thunderbolt 4 hub, but those tend to come with only three ports, so I’d need to connect two, either to both the free ports or in a daisychain from one. This article considers an alternative: OWC’s four-bay Express 4M2 enclosure.</p>
<p>The original 4M2 supported Thunderbolt rather than USB4. When used as a RAID array, with SoftRAID, it delivered excellent performance, but as a plain four-bay enclosure for separate disks it was slow and only delivered about 800 MB/s. The current version now supports USB4, and gives each bay a single lane of PCIe 4.0. I have just completed testing my new 4M2 with three Samsung 990 Pro 2 TB SSDs, connected to my Mac mini M4 Pro. Results given here are for the ‘gold standard’ test using <a href="https://eclecticlight.co/dintch/">Stibium</a>.</p>
<p>Transfer speeds without RAID are limited to just over 1.6 GB/s for both read and write, but are sustained at that even when reading or writing simultaneously to two of its SSDs. Simultaneous transfers to three or four SSDs will reduce, though, as the total then exceeds the 3.2 GB/s available through its single USB4 connection to the host Mac. A future model could perhaps use the full four lanes over Thunderbolt 5, but that&#

Ok, re-looking at my OWC miniStack STX, when I first got it, I could have my Home directory for my MacStudio running on it fine. Then it went screwy, and now my home directory is back on the small drive in the macStudio. Has anyone gotten a proven way to move the Home directory over to the miniStack? #apple #macOS #OWC
