Product Description
The CADA-SA2 Series offers an unbeatable combination of RAID data protection, 3.0Gbit/sec eSATA speed and a vast storage capacity of 1TB (500GB mirrored). This dual-bay drive features swappable hard disks and a built-in RAID controller and arrives preconfigured in Spanning (BIG). The CADA-SA2 is easily configurable to RAID 1 to protect your important dataaif one drive fails, replace it with an identical drive and the data will automatically rebuild.

Configure it to RAID 1 for automatic background rebuilding and optimum security for your files, or to RAID 0 for increased data reading and writing speeds. Factory default is BIG (Spanning) GUI mode, but also supports RAID levels 1, 0 and 0+1(safe 33/safe 50). Its SATA interface provides a faster boot process and quicker loading of programs and data. Ideal for saving hefty files, video, music, protecting databases or working directly on the drive, it delivers high-capacity performance and data security.

The unit is factory pre-formatted in Spanning (BIG) and ready to use out of the box. Install the easy-to-use software to take advantage of RAID protection and set up the SATA to eSATA adaptor cable and youare ready to start!

1 out of 5 stars Failed in 3 months   November 19, 2008
Mang (Campbell, CA)
What else can I review about? It only worked for three months. I have 500gb of data in it, with a seal saying if broken warranty void. No way I wanna send it to repair with my data. Why 500GB? I used it as RAID1, so i do not have to have to buy another disk for dual backups. But i just realized it was a mistake.
