The MB662US-2S is a dual bay hard drive RAID enclosure that can use two 3.5” SATA hard drives for different RAID configurations. With the built-in RAID device inside the enclosure, you can have both USB and e-SATA with six different types of configurations. The main features in this enclosure is RAID 0 for greater transfer speed, RAID 1 for storage recovery, BIG setup for maximum hard drive capacity, or JBOD to setup two separate hard drives. The additional features of this enclosure are Safe 33 and Safe 50, which allow users to have both data recovery and most possible hard drive capacity. Manual switches on the back of the enclosure allow users to set their drive for different RAID configurations without having to buy any RAID controller cards or install software, allowing even those to set configurations without having any experiences with RAID configurations. Other features are the fan speed controller to manage the speed of the fan and hard drive installation requires no tools or kits. This is the perfect device for video editors or photographers that require speed and safety in their storage for both business and personal uses.

RAID Descriptions
|
 |
JBOD (Non-RAID): The two physical disks read as two independent hard drives in a single housing, so that two logical volumes mount on the desktop. Therefore, the computer will show two separate drives. Note: The failure of one disk will not affect the other disk. Therefore, the data on the working drive will be intact and functioning. |
 |
BIG (RAID 0 Mode):The two physical drives are combined so that one single yet larger logical volume mounts on the desktop, offering maximum possible capacity (the available capacities of each disk are combined). Note: If one physical disk fails, the data on both disks will become inaccessible. If you are concerned about data security, we highly recommend using Safe configuration (RAID 1 mode). |
 |
Fast (RAID 0 Mode): The two physical drives are stripped together so that one larger logical volume mounts on the desktop, offering the maximum possible capacity like in Big mode (the available capacities of each disk are combined) yet with greater speed than the Big mode (the speed of each disk runs faster to a certain level). Note: If one drive fails, the data on both disks will become inaccessible. |
 |
Safe (RAID 1 Mode): The two physical drives are “mirrored” (RAID 1) so that one single logical volume mounts on the desktop. All of the data on one drive will be recoverable from the other drive (the available capacity of one drive cannot exceed the available capacity of the other drive). Note: If one physical disk fails, the data can be immediately recovered from the second disk. No data will be lost if one drive fails. |
 |
Safe33 ：RAID 1 (SAFE 33%) + RAID 0 (BIG 67%): 33% of memory space on both hard drive will be operating under RAID 1 mode, and the rest of the hard drive memory on both disks will be assorted into RAID 0. |
 |
Safe50： RAID 1 (SAFE 50%) + RAID 0 (BIG 50%): 50% of the memory in both disks will be RAID 1, and the rest of the hard drive memory on both disks will be assorted into RAID 0. |

Caution: Changing the RAID mode destroys data stored on the MB662 series. If you have saved data on the drives, back up data before following these steps. |
