RAID 5 stripes data across all four drives with a parity block, so if one drive fails, your data survives. You lose one drive's worth of capacity (e.g. a 32TB unit gives you ~24TB usable in RAID 5), but you gain meaningful protection against hardware failure. RAID 0 gives you maximum speed and full capacity — but with zero redundancy. One drive fails, everything's gone. For active project storage or a primary editing drive, RAID 5. For a scratch disk or temporary cache where data loss is acceptable, RAID 0.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy enterprise drives instead of standard desktop drives?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesktop hard drives are engineered for single-drive environments with light-to-moderate daily use. Enterprise drives are built for multi-drive enclosures where vibration from neighbouring drives is a constant factor. They carry higher MTBF ratings, are rated for 600,000 contact start cycles, and are designed to run continuously without the performance degradation you'd see from consumer drives in a RAID enclosure over time. OWC currently ships the Toshiba MG08-D Series in this configuration, though they reserve the right to substitute an equivalent enterprise-class drive from another manufacturer — same spec, no downgrade. If you're storing irreplaceable assets or running this unit around the clock, enterprise drives earn their price difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I connect this to my Mac or PC without adapters?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — if your computer has a Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 port (USB-C connector), you connect directly with the included cable. If your machine has Thunderbolt 2 (mini-DisplayPort connector), you'll need a certified Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter (sold separately) — data transfer will run at up to 20Gb\/s in that configuration, and notebook charging is not supported. Windows PCs with a Thunderbolt 3 port connect fine; SoftRAID on Windows supports RAID 0 and RAID 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I daisy-chain multiple ThunderBay 4 units?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The second Thunderbolt 3 port is a downstream port — use it to daisy-chain up to six ThunderBay 4 units from a single Thunderbolt 3 port on your computer. You can also connect a display through the chain. Total bandwidth is shared across the daisy-chain, so RAID 5 on a single unit is the more bandwidth-efficient configuration if you're chaining multiple units under sustained load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat happens if a drive fails?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn RAID 5, the enclosure remains fully operational with one failed drive — your data is intact and accessible while you replace the drive.

SoftRAID will detect the new drive and begin rebuilding the array automatically, alerting you to progress and completion. SoftRAID's predictive failure monitoring also flags drives showing early warning signs before they actually fail — giving you time to act rather than scramble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Bays\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4 × 3.5-inch (also accepts 2.5-inch drives without adapter)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable Capacities\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32TB · 48TB · 64TB · 80TB · 96TB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Solution Cache Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,024 MB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnterprise-class 3.5-inch SATA HDDs, 7,200RPM — currently Toshiba MG08-D Series*\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRotational Speed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7,200 RPM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage Interface\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSATA 6.0 Gb\/s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact Start Stops\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600,000 (enterprise-rated)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHost Interface\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThunderbolt 3 (USB-C), backward compatible with Thunderbolt 2 via adapter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePorts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(1) Thunderbolt 3 Host Port + (1) Thunderbolt 3 Daisy-chain Port\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eData Transfer Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 40Gb\/s (5,000 MB\/s) via Thunderbolt 3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenchmark Read Speed (Max)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 1,083 MB\/s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBenchmark Write Speed (Max)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 1,164 MB\/s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRAID Levels Supported\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 4, RAID 5, RAID 1+0 (Mac);
