Detailed Description
FiT 400
FiT_300/400/500

FiT series, a new stylish, versatile, easy to use and more economical RAID storage device. The heart of FiT is adopted with hardware RAID technology which offers high performance, superior reliability and large capacity for your budget.
Easy to Use:
FiT Series are plug & play RAID systems. Setup RAID configurations can be simply made by the Rotary switch. The Rotary switch provides user direct and fast setting for RAID Level 0, 1, 3, 5 , PM, Large, and Clone. Users are not required to have any RAID knowledge but easily to enjoy the high-performance and reliability from the FiT RAID storage.
High Performance > 200MB/s:
FiT equipped with hardware RAID which provides users great performance.
Test below in Windows 7 32 bit with 5x2TB Seagate ST32000644NS
RAID 0 Performance
Read = 220 MB/sec
Write = 226 MB/sec
RAID 5 Performance
Read = 218 MB/sec
Write = 220 MB/sec



Encryption AES Key AES-256bit:



FiT F series feature Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Encryption Technology using a secret key of length (AES-256: 256-bit) for security RAID protections. AES encryption will be equipped with a AES key (left) by hardware encryption. Once the users generate the AES key, the RAID volume will be not accessed without AES key, offering users the most security way to keep important data guarded.
Cost Effective Raid 5 solution:
FiT built with cost effective Hardware RAID SOC solution and most popular SATA Disk interface. SOC technology truly enforces low-cost and easy-to-use RAID 5 storage solution, and SATA Disk interface brings benefits from the high performance, large capacity and lowest cost SATA drives.
No more restriction:
FiT supports 48 bit LBA addressing bit that free of 2TB restriction, FiT allows high demanding users to store large data of music, audio and video files while many small RAID systems still locked by 2TB limitation. By overcoming the 2TB limitation, FiT extended the lifetime of RAID systems and disk drives significantly.
Compact:
The FIT is designed to be compact from the outside, yet spacious and versatile from the inside. The HDD tray connects directly with backplane and an External FAN module on the rear-end side gives the FIT compact footprint.
Multiple RAID Level
FiT Supports multiple RAID Levels including RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, PM, Large, and Clone that can be tuned to the required level to support your application on capacity, reliability and performance necessarily.
One Button backup
FiT packs with one button backup software, PCClone_EX, offering an easier way to backup your data. By only one time configuration, RAID box will automatically do the further backup tasks when user clicks the One Button Backup .
SMART and Noise-Free Fan module.
With a thermal sensor and SMART, 4 levels RPM of FAN module efficiently reduce / lower the noise, provide a quite working environment for power-users, and let them to be more focused on creations. Hot-swappable Fan module prevents the situation of data damage from overheating Raid.
Hot Swappable Tray
This is not only for Simplifying Hard disk installation but also for preparing redundant data protection in Real-times.

Advantage Highlights

2Bay vs 3Bay
Remarkable 3Bay R5 RAID Box is first released in the storage market; Users have a better option to enjoy hardware RAID5 with much less cost but high performance. RAID 5 is better than RAID 1/10 in performance because it can distribute IO to more drives, and have a mostly similar level of fault tolerance as RAID1/10; Moreover, RAID 5 is better in capacity usage efficiency with 66% of the available capacity as compared to a 2-drives Raid 1 array with only 50% available capacity; In results, you save one third of cost for each Gigabyte capacity.

Software Raid Vs Hardware Raid vs Internal Raid card
Hardware RAID offloads computing power and needs no resource from host systems which improve data access performance significantly compared to Internal Raid card and software Raid Contrary to software RAID, Hardware RAID is transparent from OS and its RAID status and configurations are saved in Hard Disk Drives and isolated from the host systems; this also lowers the risk that caused from the host side�s software malfunctions. As a result, Hardware RAID is more reliable and has better performance than software RAID overall.
