The AV Pro 2 Storage Hub features UASP (USB attached SCSI protocol), a transfer protocol that dramatically improves transfer performance. UASP allows USB devices to queue multiple commands and execute them out of order in both directions, greatly increasing the efficiency and performance of the interface. In the past, transfers using the older BOT (Bulk Only Transport) protocol only allowed a single, unidirectional command at a given time and did not have the ability to perform out of order requests. Utilizing the efficiency of UASP and the speed of SSDs, the AV Pro 2 Storage Hub is able reach a level of performance previously unattainable by single drive storage solutions. |
|
SSD/HDD Like all CalDigit storage products, the AV Pro 2 Storage Hub can use both full size 3.5" and 2.5” solid state drives. The convenient removable drive module design allows users to expand and upgrade their systems in a blink of an eye. Users are no longer limited to choosing between capacity and performance.

The AV Pro 2 features both active and passive cooling systems that allow the hard drive to stay in nominal operating temperatures at all times. The energy saving, ambient temperature-controlled smart fan runs only when the AV Pro 2 needs it most. It can be disabled due to the low heat, resulting in ultra silent operation. |
|
Aluminum Construction CalDigit carries a philosophy of utilizing the best materials and components to ensure years of reliable operation and customer satisfaction. Instead of using plastic to reduce overall cost, the design team insisted on choosing aluminum as their top pick for its outstanding heat dissipating properties, superior structural integrity, weight, aesthetics, and 100% recyclability. CalDigit stands behind every product and aims to deliver the highest quality to everyone, even if it means reduced profits to furnish the best. |
|
Swappable Drive Design Just like its predecessor, the AV Pro 2 features removable drive modules that are compatible with other CalDigit storage products such as the AVPro, T3, and T4 RAID. Conveniently replace the drive module once your AV Pro 2 is full and easily transfer drives between your other CalDigit storage devices. Replacement CalDigit drive modules come with a hardshell case to keep your back-ups and archival drives secure. |
