The Ultimate Storage device is here, this Dual Bay supports 2 x 500gb, or 2 x 750GB, or 2 x 1TB to 2TB Maximum capacity SATA Serial ATA hard drives.

This is the perfect way to BackUp and store your files such as pictures, videos, movies, and other files or data, this is excellent for redundancy purpose. Basically you have the options to have 2 drives working simultaneously for the same data copied onto the drives. In case of one drive fails, you still have the other one with your data when you use the Raid 1 function/option, this certainly minimizes the chance of your data loss. The chance of two drives fail at the same time is slim to none. If you prefer, you can combined the storage for two drives to get a maximum space usage up 2TB. If you do combine them, you'll not have the Raid function. This is very important, be sure you are aware of the difference. Please contact us or SimpleTech if you have further questions. Volume purchase is welcomed as well.
