Would be more impressive if storage was more than 4TB!

True, bigger would be better. I have been using their portable USB 3 drives for a few years now with no problems. I’m just a bit worried if it is buss powered because RAID arrays are notoriously sensitive to power issues. As it is portable, you would also most likely be using a laptop. I showed it to one of my IT manager friends and he insists that “RAID Array” + “Portable” is an oxymoron!
