If you connect this to a Windows Home Server PC, you can use the WHS "Drive Duplication" feature instead of the built-in RAID. From what I've read, it's provides much faster disk I/O with the Sans Digital arrays since the "mirroring" happens asynchronously.
Either way, great deal & 4 star average @ the egg.
huh?...(in english please for all us tech wannabees) lol
Does that apply to Raid 0 as well? Thinking about something like this for video editing for a long time. Thx
For video editing you would be better off with multiple drives on thier own sata port. This uses a port multiplier which shares bandwidth for all drives on one port.
If you use the eSata connection this would do fine for video editing. As #3 mentioned it won't be as fast as a single large drive on it's own port, but it will capture 1080p video without a problem and it pretty quick for editing. It won't work for HD editing over USB (well, it will work, but poorly).
I think see your point. Thx all 4 the input.
So if I understand correctly, I'm not doing myself any favors running an esata enclosure with 3-4 drives (b/c I'm getting 1/4 the bandwith/drive), when I could just do them separately- a connection per drive.
