RAID Flexibility and Performance
This device utilizes a hardware-based RAID controller, allowing for configuration in RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50, or 60. Each RAID level offers different balances of speed, data protection, or both, depending on your workflow needs. JBOD is also an option for users who prefer not to use RAID. When set to RAID 0, you can expect data transfer speeds up to 2800 MB/s, while RAID 5 achieves speeds of up to 2500 MB/s.
