LaCie 301355U 5big Network NAS
The LaCie 5big Network is ideal for easily storing, sharing, securing, and backing up your office’s files. It comes with five internal bays, and up to an astonishing 5TB of storage capacity. You can customize it even further by adding more external hard disks to the LaCie 301355U 5big Network NAS, using its four external ports. Fully compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems, it supports most popular access protocols and allows up to 25 network users to access it concurrently.
Ideal for IT Network Administrators
With its intuitive web interface, administration is easy, convenient and secure. Thanks to the 5big Network’s DHCP and Apipa support, network configuration is fast and automatic. It’s easy to control data access by assigning various security levels to shares, groups, user profiles, and public access, and with Windows ADS domain support, there’s no need to recreate user and group accounts. End users do not need to create new passwords and usernames, making the LaCie 301355U 5big Network NAS as convenient as it is safe. The 5big Network also provides its administrator with notifications via email of events like backup, RAID construction, and downloads, as well as high temperature, disk damage, and fan damage alerts.
Multimedia Server Capabilities
With the LaCie 5big Network, it’s easy to stream multimedia
content to your television. You can play your media on any UPnP AV-compatible Digital Media Adapter (DMA), such as a PS3 or Xbox, without needing a computer—you can store the information directly on the LaCie 5big Network. In fact, the LaCie 301355U 5big Network NAS has been developed to be compatible with any DLNA multimedia device, and also works with iTunes®. In addition, users can set the LaCie 5big Network to download torrent files automatically without the PC having to be turned on.
Quiet and Reliable Operation
For the best and most reliable cooling system for the 5big Network, LaCie has chosen the Noctua and the NF-P12 fan technology, designed in Austria, and automatically thermoregulated by SMART commands. The nine-blade design and the vortex-control notches of the blower provide superior pressure and airflow performance, all at a volume fewer than 19dBA. The best-in-its-class Noctua is rated at 150,000 hours MTBF, and its ultra-quiet design makes it perfect for even the most noise-sensitive creative environment. This attention to detail allows the 5big Network to be from 15% (seek) to 37% (idle) quieter than traditional 4-disk systems.
Power Savings
Traditional RAID systems can consume a lot of power, but the 5big Network is different. LaCie has reduced power consumption of this 5-disk solution by 25% compared to the previous 4-disk RAID generations. Moreover, with the “Auto” mode of the triple position power button, the 5big is able to go into standby reducing the power consumption by up to 75%. Thanks to the Wake-on-LAN feature, the 5big Network can be switched back to operating mode from the client side.
Easy to Use
For a unique user experience, the 5big Network includes the
LaCie Network Assistant software for Windows, Mac, and Linux
to be installed at the client side, and its intuitive and appealing design increase both functionality and usability. With this agent, users have quick access to the shares created in the 5big Network, and can see all the LaCie NAS products in the network.

Worked out of the box with no problems, but I thought it was broken becuase it was so slow, but after dealing with Lacie support I find that all you can expect is 10-12 MBPS file transfers. I also thought that advertising eSATA was a little dissapointing becuase this device does not benefit by eSTATA speeds as those ports are only for external storage devices that attach to the Lacie |

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.)
