Re: HDElement Drive Module Upgradeability

Jon… thanks for the quick reply.

For the most part I’m just asking if it’s possible??? I’m weighing the pros and cons of various systems and it seems to me that this would be desirable if you can’t afford the cadillac today. If I understand correctly, what you’re telling me is that it is possible, but not recommended. I can live with that. I guess the scenario I envision would be to purchase a 2T unit now, add a 4T unit when needed (say 12-18 months) and then upgrade the 2T unit to 4T at some point after that. I would hope that drive module prices would come down a little in about 2 years to offset the added expense of this type of upgrade path (one can hope, can’t one ). But then who knows… CalDigit might not still sell this in 2 years.

Another question for you… Is it possible to extend a RAID across 2 or more of the HDElements??? Your website implies this but doesn’t come right out and say it.

Mark
