* RAID software configuration included in Mac Disk Utility and Windows Disk Manager.

** Indicative reference, when compared with the previous generation LaCie Biggest RAID tower.

*** 1TB (Terabyte) = 1000GB. 1GB = 1000MB. 1MB = 1,000,000 Bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 10% less). Capacity and cache memory vary depending upon RAID mode.

 Calculations are based on 1080i 60 (8-bit) for uncompressed HD video, NTSC DV 25 standard-definition 720x486, 29.97 fps for digital video; and an estimation of Digital SLR resolution of 10 megapixels for RAW photos of 

12MB. These calculations are only estimations and may vary with the codec used.

Indicative reference, when compared with the previous generation LaCie Biggest RAID tower.

 Maximum interface transfer rate = theoretical bus bandwidth, whereas burst transfer rate = maximum drive speed. Performance depends on the RAID mode selected and burst transfer rates vary from one computer to another 

and may vary slightly from one drive to another. Average speed is usually lower depending on host configuration.

The eSATA card is a host adapter. RAID is managed by Windows and MAC host utilities.
