Excessive heat can cause major issues and performance problems inside any workstation. Each and every component that is added to a workstation generates heat. These components are generally crammed into a small space, which in turn restricts airflow. The result is additional heat.

As the heat increases, the burden on the workstation rises. This slows down performance and adds additional strain to the workstation, which can cause premature failure of various components.

Unlike other RAID storage solutions, the CalDigit HDPro has a completely external RAID system. It is designed to minimize the heat inside the workstation. Because no additional heat is added, more reliable operation is achieved and individual components can experience a longer lifespan.
