RAID for when failure is not an option
The many RAID options available with RT5E give you the power to choose exactly how safe you want your data to be, and RAIDing with RT5E is a piece of cake. The RAID options are on a scrolling menu, so it's easy to choose the RAID level you need. Configure as RAID 5, or even as a RAID 5 with a hot spare. If you don't know what these terms mean, check out our RAID FAQ.
