The 2.5TB 5big includes 2.5 TB of disk space, enough to store your important data, digital media files, and more. If you need more space, the 5big drives also come in 5TB and 7.5TB versions. You can also easily upgrade the disk drives later if you choose by installing compatible drives (sold separately). Because the 5big features hot-swappable drives that are easily accessed using a drive-tray system, increasing capacity is extremely simple.
The 5big gives you the option of seven different RAID modes: RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 5+Spare, RAID 3, RAID 3+Spare, Concatenation, and RAID 10. Depending on the RAID mode you choose, you can either optimize the 5big for faster performance and higher storage space, or for more protection. (Please note that depending on the configuration, the usable amount of space for this model might be less than 2 TB.)
Gigabit Ethernet for Outstanding Network Performance
The 5big uses a Gigabit Ethernet connection for fast network performance and supports up to 25 concurrent network users. All the computers in your network--whether they are PCs, Macs, or Linux--will connect without problems, thanks to support for SMB, AFP, and other protocols. There is also support for FTP and HTTP servers, and even a built-in BitTorrent client that lets you download BitTorrent files without leaving your computer on.
Expansion Ports for External Drives, Digital Cameras, and More
The 5big Network features one Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connection and three eSATA connections for additional storage, data import, and external backups. Digital Cameras and flash drives can be connected directly, and the contents can be automatically imported with the push of a button.
