Sometimes in life I think…
Sometimes in life I think I am sooo000 right, only to find out I am wrong. 🙁 The thing that matter most, now seem to matter least. There are things that people have told me, that have been on the same path as me, what to do and to expect. The most difficult error in life, is the one I make myself and know I could have avoided. When I say I could have or should have, I know that it is too late! Somethings in life there is no take back and only regrets… 😢

I decided to put a new face to the site. There are still little bugs to the theme, but the theme is no longer supported and I have to figure things out myself. I find this good for my learning! 😉
I have tested enough and seems to be working! 🙂
I will continue to fix the bugs as I come across them and as time avails.

Mediasonic HFR2-S3B RAID 0 / 1 / 3 / 5 / 10 4 3.5″ Drive Bays USB 2.0 eSATA Firewire 400 (1 Port) Firewire 800 (2 Port) PRORAID Box 4 Bay Raid Enclosure with USB 2.0, eSATA & FireWire 400/800
Overview
Getting the flexibility of external hard drives combined with the security of a RAID array has never been easier! Mediasonic’s HFR2-S3B accommodates four 3.5’’ SATA I/II hard drives, and each drive can be up to a whopping 2000GB. It connects to your PC with Windows or Mac OS through hot-swappable USB 2.0 or eSATA connection as well as FireWire 400/800 ports.
You will never need to worry about your hard disk drive malfunctioning with the RAID technology. The Mediasonic HFR2-S3B integrates a hardware RAID controller to support RAID 0/1/3/5/10 configurations while reducing the load of the server. A RAID control button makes the setup easy. A smart fan with auto/manual mode and 3-level speed combines with the built-in thermal-sensor to keep the drives cool and running at peak levels.
