Intelligent error correction system prevents the drives from the RAID discarded due to too long recovery from errors. When unexpected power outages extra NASware ensure completion of the order prior to shutting down the drive.
Improved technology double ensure a balance significantly improves overall performance and reliability of disk. Hard drives that are not properly balanced, can in systems with multiple disks cause excessive vibration and noise, reduce disc life and reduce performance over time.
