SoftRAID checks and verifies new disks for errors before use, warns users when a disk is about to fail, and even keeps users working if a drive is lost. When it comes to protection, SoftRAID was designed to keep work worry-free. Getting work done quickly while keeping data safe is paramount.
In contrast, if a hardware RAID system fails and it’s out of production or no longer supported, all the data could be lost. With SoftRAID, users replace a bad enclosure or upgrade, and the drives can be moved to that enclosure where data can be accessed without skipping a beat. Perhaps the biggest advantage of SoftRAID over a hardware RAID is that users are not locked into specific hardware in order to access data. The result is a fast and flexible RAID array that doesn’t impact a computer’s system or applications. Additionally, SoftRAID utilizes a computer’s advanced processing power versus the slow processors found in most hardware RAID enclosures. With SoftRAID, users can spread volumes over two or more drive enclosures for mind-boggling performance over a single hardware RAID device. SoftRAID unshackles users from expensive hardware RAID technology that’s not upgradeable or expandable. With SoftRAID Lite and Lite XT, Windows users can create super-fast RAID 0 sets or ultra-secure RAID 1 sets, certify new disks before use, receive warnings when a disk is about to fail, and restore data quickly with fast rebuilding.
