RAID Level Modes: 

  • FAST or Data Striping (RAID 0) — allows the enclosure to performance stripe the drives, to provide maximum throughput to the direct attached PC/Server.
  • SAFE or Data Mirroring (RAID 1) — allows the enclosure to automatically copy primary hard drive without any CPU loading*. The enclosure provides automatic rebuild on device replacement and auto-failover, to eliminate any workflow interruptions. 
  • SAFE & FAST or Data Striping and Mirroring (RAID 10) — allows the enclosure to improve data availability beyond RAID 5 or RAID 6 with large SATA drives, due to rebuild vulnerability. 
  • SAFE & BIG Mode or Drive Spanning and Mirroring — allows for large capacity with protection.
  • BIG or Drive Spanning — allows the enclosure to make any two drives (same or different sizes) appear as one large drive to the host, for extra capacity (also called concatenation).
  • JBOD or Port Multiplier — this allows the direct attached PC/Server to see the drives in the enclosure as just a bunch of drives. 

Data Protection Features: 

  • Automatic-Mirroring (RAID 1 mode)*
  • Self-healing storage (Auto-Rebuild/Hot Spare)*
  • No down time (Automatic-Failover)*
