Okay, so I understand that speed is of the utmost. As far as what you say about Lacie not being a pro level provider I’m not suprised. I got the drive refurbished for like $500 so I feel like I got what I paid for. However, I don’t understand how RAID 0 + 1 could lose so much performance. That being said, is there a better method for maintaining redudancy without having to manually drag and drop everything you are working on everyday? What kind of workflow do you recommend.
