Why Choose Hardware RAID? | ||
While software RAID may seem like a viable option to hardware RAID, the advantages of having a hardware solution far outweigh software RAID solutions. Powered by the CalDigit RAIDCard, the HDElement has a 100% hardware disk controller that comes with its own independent CPU. This means that the CPU uses less cycles and power than a software solution, and leaves your workstation’s CPU free to do what it has been designed for - running your applications. Software RAIDs use your workstation's CPU. This takes away processing power from other applications and slows your whole system down. Hardware RAID gives you the ultimate in protection from OS corruption or crashes while a software application gives no protection at all. Software RAIDs are also generally more complicated to run and configure. The HDElement is straightforward and simple to use and includes additional features for optimizing the performance of your system. |
