Comment:
I finally got religion and wanted to have all my photos, an extensive collection, on a RAID 1 setup for safety and peace-of-mind. I also wanted removable drives, since they WILL fail over time. MobileSTOR fits the bill nicely. I got my unit, and immediately saw that, as everyone everywhere says, Sans Digital has the worst instructions. There is a little flyer but youre on your own to figure it out! Fortunately Sans Digital has great tech support on the phone. Nowhere does it say you have to hold the reset button for 5 seconds for it to work, but the guys on the phone tell you right away. They also shipped the unit knowing that it's GUI readout will give you false information (''not a problem'' tech-guy said. ''Is too'' I said.) They replaced it promptly. I'm using 1.5TB Seagate drives, which work great. So I'm happy with the unit. Sans Digital has some fine-tuning to do, and a good manual to write, but if you can get past that, this seems like a good simple RAID setup.

Product Features

Sans Digital MobileSTOR MS2UT+B Enclosure
The MobileSTOR MS2UT+B series is a fully loaded 2-bay external RAID solution designed for home and small business storage needs. With simplicity and flexibly in mind, this series is equipped with two hot-swappable 3.5? hard drive trays, as well as both USB 2.0 and eSATA host interfaces. In addition to RAID 0 and RAID 1, MS2UT+ also utilizes the latest Silicon Image 5744 chipset, supporting the newest SAFE33 and SAFE50 technology. SAFE33 and SAFE50 allows the creation of two hard drive volumes where 1/3 (SAFE33) or 1/2 (SAFE50) of the volume is used for mirroring and the rest is used for Spanning (Big). In comparison to SAFE (RAID 1) mode, which utilizes both hard drives for mirroring, SAFE33 and SAFE50 increase storage space by setting aside a portion of disk space for regular data storage while performing mirror simultaneously. By incorporating SAFE33 and SAFE50, the MS2UT+ eliminates the cost of additional hard drives needed for various storage modes.
