Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Despite being listed in the specs, this unit will not do a RAID 5 configuration.It will do JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID 10.The management utility is tiny and has very few options.I went out to the company's site and downloaded the latest software/firmware, but there are no discernible differences.
As an external RAID array it functions as you would expect.The transfer rate over eSATA is blazing fast, and it runs quieter than I was expecting (about as loud as an idle XBox360).The 80mm rear cooling fan has a separate on/off switch, for quieter (though much warmer) operation.I've been running it for two months with no issues.
It's a good budget unit for some quick redundant storage, but I probably wouldn't recommend it for someone who is wanting a serious RAID array.
UPDATE:I see the unit's description has been updated and no longer claims RAID5 capability.
