OWC Mercury RAID

By Jay Savage

OWC yesterday introduced a new Mac RAID solution: the Mercury Elite Pro-AL 800 Dual Drive. When you have a capactiy up to 1TB and boast transfer rates of up to 80MB/s, I guess you get to have a long name. It's a little unclear what kinds of RAID the drive supports, and whether the 1TB is for a true RAID 1 (the only RAID you can implement on two disks) or a pseudo-RAID 0 stiping scheme without fault tolerence. My guess is 0. Still, for heavy-duty storage and fast transfer with some serious style, a terabyte for under $1000USD isn't bad.
