RAID Protection

Thanks to the secure RAID modes, including RAID 5, RAID 3  
and RAID 10, the 4big Quadra enables you to keep data access 
even if one disk fails. The hot-swappable disk trays even allow 
maintenance without affecting your workflow. “Spare” modes allow 
a second level of protection; a sort of “automatic maintenance” 
that will immediately start rebuilding the RAID protection in case of 
a disk failure. Extra spare disks are also available as an option for 
immediate replacement.
