The 7200 RPM SATA 3Gb high-performance disk drives are hot-swappable and the Hardware RAID Controller supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 3, RAID 5 and JBOD. A web-browser accessed RAID-Console provides quick and easy RAID management and it's compatible with PC, Mac and Linux. The PRO Q is also laptop compatible with purchase of the optional ExpressCard 34.
