In this video I'm just giving more clarity to the issues I have had with the Gen 5 version of the Acasis TB501 Pro. This video explains why my results were skewed even though two of my enclosures had the wrong firmware. I hope this video goes some way to explaining to my viewers that I had no idea about the issues and why my initial results were all really positive.

For anyone interested. Here's a link to a folder with some documents during my testing over the last few weeks or so with the Gen 5 TB501 enclosures that I had sent to me. The PDFs are AI summaries from some very involved emails that I sent to Acasis during my tests since receiving the first enclosure https://www.mediafire.com/folder/rthzfu5j45mom/ACASIS_TB501_PRO_GEN_5_TESTS_AND_DATA

Here's the video about the firmware issue and how you should go about reporting this to Acasis:    • PROBLEMS WITH ACASIS TB501 PRO YOU NEED TO...
