• Seemed like bait-and-switch to more expensive offering

  Pros

  Looks like a great program. The key word is "looks" because the software is no longer available at the listed price.

  Cons

  See bottom-line summary for details.

  Summary

  I gave this a "mediocre" rating because it looks like good software but the company is using "bait and switch" tactics to get you to pay 3 times the advertised price. When I found this software- and the following is very dumb on my part- I went and bought a nice USB hub to use with it before actually downloading the software. When I tried to download the software, I found the download link was dead, and attempts to find a working link via search engine failed. I contacted the company to find out how to buy the software and they said the only way I could get it was to buy their $60 version- same software but with an included generic USB hub. I told them I did not need their hub but they said my 7-port hub would not be compatible with their software because their software only supports 4 ports and that I would need to buy their $60 package. Their ad says it supports 25 drives though. So I guess they have made some changes to the program. All in all, the program may be good, and for $60 it might be worth it. But if they are not going to offer this $20 software product, they should take this (and other) ads for it down. I decided to go with a competing product based on the answers/explanations their support department provided me when I inquired about all of the above. If you are interested in this software, at least at the time I tried to download and several days thereafter, the link was broken. Their support did say a new trial version offering may become available soon but there was no ETA.
