This mode is known as JBOD, the two drives 
show up as one large single volume. 
Non-
RAID
The drives will show up as two independent 
drives.

This mode is using RAID 0 striping, ideal 
where speed is the primary objective. 
3 SAFE
This mode is using RAID 1 mirroring, creating 
an exact copy of all data for safety. 
 
Smart Fan 
The smart fan automatically regulates the fan speed according

using low speed and increase the speed every 5 degrees until 
reaching 60 degrees. Above that it will always use high speed.
