The Hot Rod 100 Pro includes EZRAID for boosting disk performance and data protection.
The EZRAID function supports Striping (RAID 0), Mirroring (RAID 1), or
Striping/Mirroring (RAID 0+1) operation. For Striping operation, the identical drives can
read and write data in parallel to increase performance. The Mirroring operation increases
read performance through load balancing and elevator sorting while creating a complete
backup of your files. Striping with Mirroring operation offers both high read/write
performance and fault tolerance. The EZRAID function of the Hot Rod 100 Pro offers quick
and easy installation and configuration.
