I finally got the Akitio 2520 U3.1 connected to my iMac 2017.

Got a couple Samsung Pro SSD SataIII
and one Samsung T5.

The Akitio enclosure is hardware raid and currently on Raid 0 with

Speed on USB-C
Write : 848 MB/s
Read: 874 MB/s

Samsung T5 on USB-C
Write: 486 MB/s

The Akitio is really nice!

It works on High Sierra MacOS.

I attempted to install High Sierra MacOs
In the Akitio 2520 3.1 USB-C Enclosure on RAID 0 (2x Samsung Pro SSD 256BG formatted to APFS) and it installed flawlessly.

I did migration from my installed High Sierra OS from the Samsung T5 to the Raid 0 enclosure.

BTW, the TRIM Enabler App also works!
