EzRAID IDE and SATA Drive Mirroring
RAID 1 Controllers and Enclosures
|
|
EzRAID RAID 1 enclosures and controllers provide an easy to install, easy to operate and consistently reliable alternative to software drive mirroring (which can be complicated, unreliable and sometimes downright scary.) Based on our DupliDisk mirroring technology, they require no device drivers so they can be used with any operating system.

What is RAID 1?
RAID level 1, also called disk mirroring or drive mirroring, utilizes a second drive to provide real-time hard drive backup. In a RAID 1 array one drive is a redundant, or mirror, drive. When you mirror a hard drive, all saved data is written to both drives and the mirror drive remains an exact duplicate of the primary drive. (To maintain an exact duplicate of your drive without RAID, see our EzBackup external USB drives.)

Each EzRAID device
is designed to ensure that your computer and your business stay up and running--even if your hard drive fails. At Data Protection Solutions by Arco we offer a broad selection of SATA RAID 1 controllers and enclosures. Our products come in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, including both internal and external RAID 1 SATA drive enclosures. No matter how much or how little space you have within your computer system, you'll find a size and shape to fit your needs. Click on a product icon for a detailed description and technical specifications. If you do not find the exact product you need, please call or email us with your specifications. We'll be happy to design something for you.
All EzRAID SATA RAID products are based on Data Protection Solutions by Arco's DupliDisk -4 (DD4) SATA drive mirror technology. Each controller installs easily and connects via three SATA cables, one to each drive and one to the SATA controller on the motherboard. EzRAID enclosures include two removable hot swap drive caddies.
Once the EzRAID device is installed, all data saves are sent to both drives simultaneously. So the drives remain identical. If one of the drives fails, an alarm sounds and the remaining drive seamlessly takes over all operations, keeping the system up and running. All products provide an audible failure alarm and optional remote monitoring capability. Some units provide front panel status information.
