Seems like a good purchase

I'm using RAID 1 (mirrored disks)and it has decent speed with USB 2 despite this.

Flexibility great; performance so-so

"Flexibility of this product is great. You can switch from a maximum performance raid to redundant raid with the flip of a switch. But even in maximum performance "fast" mode, the product is not as fast as its non-swappable-disk LaCie cousin, the Big Disk Extreme 1 TB...." Read Full Review »

"This drive is perfect for a quick, seamless backup solution. I was tired of always buying drives in pairs (for redundancy), but couldn't seem to find two drive in one casing. Until now!

"I had the classical storage problem, and really poor backup. Decided to try this hard drive and to use it in RAID 1 mode with the firewire interface. Transfer rates are fast, almost as fast as an internal H/D on my computer. Did a test by removing one hard drive to simulate a “bad” drive and see …"  Read Full Review »
