2disk RAID
RAID Flexibility
Get maximum storage capacity or extra data security in one
affordable yet professional 2-disk RAID solution. Easily and
quickly select your RAID mode with the manual switch on
the back of the drive. For maximum capacity, choose BIG
with concatenation of the two hard drives. For maximum
protection, choose SAFE 100 (RAID 1) for automatic
mirroring of one disk to the other (available capacity =
50%); if one disk fails, data remains accessible on the other
one and the defective disk can be replaced easily with an
optional hot-swappable disk.****
Superior Design
The heat sink metal design naturally draws heat away from
the hard disk's internal components to help keep it cool
and improve reliability. The 2big Network can be stacked
or rackmounted to conform to every work environment. The
large glowing blue button adds more than character – it
functions as a 1-click data-sharing button for automatic file
transfers from a USB key. Just push the button; your data is
immediately sharable with your colleagues.
