I bought the unit to round out an audio project studio that included consolidating the HD's of 4 other computers I no longer need. Started formatting in a RAID config using 4 matched Seagate 1.5Tb HDs, but before the 37hrs(!) were up, I thought "why give up the overhead when I have a Blu-ray burner onboard?" So I'm not using RAID, but do have a backup protocol, and am enjoying the wide open vistas of 5.6Tb of networked storage! Eventually intend to use this as a media server for client stems, and audition dubs, as well as website hosting. This thing does it all. I just hope LG creates a community base around this thing, like exists for the Drobo.

Received a LG-N4B1N recently; within the hour after receiving the NAS I was transferring files to it and immediately noticed how much faster it was than my other NAS's and very much faster than my HP MediaSmart Server EX485. I am transferring all my files from the HP to the LG. One difference between the LG and HP is LG uses embedded XP while HP uses Windows Home Server. The LG is very easy to use, has quality workmanship and is a great investment; although the price of the LG is expensive today, hopefully LG will sell alot of them and the price will go down.

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.)
