High Capacity Storage
High capacity storage products are categorised by the Storage Depot as any external storage device with more than one hard drive. Single drives already have 750GB storage, which is quite a high capacity, but the small tower units we supply offer even greater capacity.
Rapid Data Transfer
High capacity drives have two or more hard drives internally so there are a few more options available. You can 'mirror' the hard disks, whereby you copy the contents of one hard drive instantly onto the other. You can 'stripe' the units, whereby data is split between each hard drive to give very fast data transfer. Alternately, you can just have two drives on either the FireWire, USB or eSATA bus in one elegant case.
Hard Disk Caddies
Typically, high capacity storage units will be used for data hogging applications. Digital video editing is one, but these storage units can also serve as a backup or archive for your computer. The high capacity drives vary from the external hard drives by housing the hard disks in caddies or bays. These caddies can be removed and replaced with new drives. This is great for taking the data off site for ultra secure data backup.
