DataPort 25 Hand-Held SATA RAID

The DataPort 25 RAID is a high density removable drive enclosure that maximizes data storage while offering the flexibility of RAID configurations for data management. The all metal construction of the DataPort 25 RAID acts as an excellent heat sink, however, during some RAID applications this dual drive configuration can generate significant levels of heat. To maximize hard drive life, ensure that the DataPort 25 RAID is mounted in a chasis which provides adequate air flow for cooling. For chassis with minimal air flow or for extreme environments CRU-DataPort recommends using extreme environment hard drives such as the Seagate EE25 Series™ Hard Drives.

  • Unique carrier design allows remote RAID configuration
  • Configurable on either carrier or frame allowing multiple carriers to have different RAID settings which are maintained through removal and insertion
  • Supports SATA 3.0 G for maximum performance or USB for hotswappability and RAID support on older IDE systems
  • High quality interconnect for frequent interchange such as digital cameras

RAID Configuration

To prepare IDE drives for RAID 0 or RAID 1, you jumper one drive as a slave device. The master device on 2.5" drives is typically un-jumpered. Both drives are installed in the DP 25 carrier. A single IDE cable is used to connect the IDE connector on the frame to the RAID controller.

To prepare SATA 3Gb/s drives for RAID 0 or RAID 1, both drives are installed into the DP 25 carrier. Two SATA 3Gb/s cables are used to connect the SATA 3Gb/s connectors on the frame to the RAID controller.

The actual configuration of the RAID array is dependent on the brand and model of RAID controller used.

"I would have no trouble putting my most sensitive data on this device and being sort of guaranteed and assured that my data is going to survive even if I suffer a drive failure."

"This product is Awesome to say the least. " "...it is the simplicity of CRU’s DataPort that makes it so unique. Such features as RAID and portability are simply priceless to those businesses looking for those two key points."
