I bought this to back up our computers on our wireless 'N' lan through my Netgear router and it works perfect! I have added a second 500gb. Seagate hard disk and a third for an external back up. It configures and syncs the two drives in about an hour. Great product for the money, wish I would have bought a bigger one.

Purchased this product primarily to serve as an backup image repository for several computers. Use it in conjuction with Norton backup...proved to be very reliable (over 1 year now)..only 1-2 downtimes due to power outages. Haven't really begun to use many of the other features of this product....

I originally bought this for the Squeeze Center add-on and to house my .mp3 files. I've since found it to be a great way to network photos and documents throughout my house. I've found the speed to be a bit slow when I transfer files, but that's more an inconvenience than a flaw. I like that it can email you error messages and you can set the timer to have it startup and shutdown at certain times. Fan is a bit noisy. Just purchased a second hard drive to add for backup. It appears to be a pretty easy to do.

What You Should Know
What is RAID?
RAID is an acronym first defined back in 1987 to describe a redundant array of inexpensive disks, a technology that allowed computer users to achieve high levels of storage reliability from low-cost PC hard disk drives, via the technique of arranging the devices into an array for fail-safe redundancy.

"RAID" is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that can divide and replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. The different schemes/architectures are named by the word RAID followed by a number, as in RAID 0, RAID 1, etc. RAID's various designs involve two key elements: increased data reliability or increased input/output performance. When multiple physical disks are set up to use RAID technology, they are said to be in a RAID array. This array distributes data across multiple disks, but the array is seen by the computer user and operating system as one single disk. RAID can be set up to serve several different purposes.

Organizing disks into a redundant array decreases the total usable storage capacity. For instance, a 2-disk RAID 1 array loses half of the total capacity that would have otherwise been available using both disks independently, and a RAID 5 array with several disks loses the capacity of one whole disk. Other types of RAID arrays are arranged so that they are faster to write to and read from than a single disk.

There are various combinations of these configurations giving different trade-offs and benefits of protection against data loss, capacity, and speed. RAID levels 0, 1, and 5 are the most commonly found, and cover most of the typical requirements.

  • RAID 0 (striped disks) distributes data across several disks in a way that gives improved speed at any given instant. If one disk fails, however, all of the data on the array will be lost, as there is neither parity nor mirroring.
  • RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the disks, making a 1:1 (1 to 1) ratio real-time backup. The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array.
  • RAID 3 uses a striped set with dedicated parity or bit interleaved parity or byte level parity.  This mechanism provides fault tolerance similar to RAID 5. However, because the strip across the disks is a lot smaller than a file system block, reads and writes to the array perform like a single drive with a high linear write performance. If one drive fails, the performance doesn't change.
  • RAID 5 (striped disks with parity) combines three or more disks in a way that protects against data loss of any one disk. The storage capacity of the array is reduced by the capacity of the one disk (all disks are of equal size).
  • RAID 6 (striped disks with dual parity) can recover from the loss of two disks.
  • RAID 10 (or 1+0) uses both striping and mirroring. ("01" or "0+1" is sometimes distinguished from "10" or "1+0": a striped set of mirrored subsets and a mirrored set of striped subsets are both valid, but distinct, configurations.)
