Another vote for Caldigit’s HDPro, great solution, I’m happy with it.
BTW, they just released a new product named HDOne at Macworld 2008. It seems like another great choice for a RAID 5 storage RAID solution.
The size is small and it’s a real hardware RAID. Here is a short video for you to check out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4WjVJIJqdI

Hi Cory,
The only thing G-SATA does, just wraps two drives together in an external enclosure. It needs two SATA cables to connect two eSATA ports to your workstation, because it doesn’t have the port-multipler technology. Simply, the RAID system is simulated by Disk Utility in your operation system and the SATA adapter is basically just an I/O port.
Personally, I have two G-SPEED eS and they are pretty expensive. They do have the port-multipler technology built-in in G-SPEED eS but it still works as a software RAID controller. Here is a short video for you to understand, the difference between Software RAID and Hardware RAID: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4WjVJIJqdI Hope that you would find my experience helpful for you.Some contents or functionalities here are not available due to your cookie preferences!This happens because the functionality/content marked as “Google Youtube” uses cookies that you choosed to keep disabled.
