A RAID for Every Occasion

The use of two hard drives in the form of a RAID configuration is widespread and popular due to its many advantages. However, those who want to take advantage of these benefits often face challenges. Not every motherboard is equipped with a RAID controller, and laptops typically fall outside the realm of possibilities. This is where the ICY BOX IB-RD3621U3 comes to the rescue, effectively transforming two 3.5" SATA hard drives into a high-performance RAID array.

You can choose between the modes JBOD, RAID 0, BIG, and RAID 1. This means either higher speed, data mirroring for increased fault tolerance, recognition of the HDDs as individual drives, or recognition of both hard drives as a single large drive. In particular, striping (RAID 0) is powered by the modern USB 3.0 connection, allowing for transfer rates of up to 5 GBit per second. Lower operating temperatures, thanks to active cooling provided by a quiet 6 cm fan, are rewarded with a longer lifespan for the hard drives.

IB-RD3621U3 external RAID system for 2x 3.5" SATA III hard drives.
