What's Hot

Hot-swappable drives, easily replaceable drives, supports RAID 0,1,5 and 0+1

What's Not

FireWire 800 isn't widely available on PCs, cost per gigabyte is high, test unit wasn't recognised on Windows Vista-based PCs

The Final Word

For those who do a lot of multimedia work and need a safe external storage solution, this unit is well-worth a look, despite a cost per gigabyte of over $2.50 when using RAID 5. We love the fact that its RAID array can be configured to our specific needs, and also the fact that drives can be easily swapped if there is a problem.
