HighPoint RocketRAID 4320

	Re: HighPoint RocketRAID 4320 by Jeremy Garchow on Oct 30, 2008 at 3:47:27 pm It's been a while since I have used Rocket Raid products, but my first go around with them was highly unsuccesful. ATTO has been rock solid for me. I am sure there are people out there that have great success stories with Rocket Raid, just not me. How are you planning on connecting to your MacBook Pro?

There is a prepackaged solution from Caldigit called the HDOne. That allows raided editing on a MacPro or MacBook Pro as the raid controller is in the drive case itself and not residing on the card and Caldigit makes a proprietary card for both the MacPro and Macbook Pro: http://www.caldigit.com/HDOne/hdone_mobility.html Jeremy Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: HighPoint RocketRAID 4320 by Bob Zelin on Oct 30, 2008 at 9:25:04 pm Jeremy is correct (he is always correct). IF you want to use a laptop, you need the Cal Digit HD One. You will not be able to use other slot 34 adaptors with other drive arrays. As for Highpoint vs. ATTO, there is no question. The ATTO R380 is one of the highest performance SAS/SATA cards to ever come out. It is world class. It is approved by many drive vendors, including Sonnet Techology and AVID for the VideoRAID ST. The Highpoint - well, you must be kidding, right ? Bob Zelin Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

	Re: CalDigit RAID(s) supports both Laptop & Desktop by Jon Schilling on Oct 31, 2008 at 12:59:33 am Gentlemen, I thought I'd give my 2 cents as it's appropriate in this thread. Both Bob and Jeremy are right, and they always are. :) The Hardware RAID based CalDigit HDPro or HDOne products fully support laptops via our eLane-1ex. With the CalDigit setup, you can edit up to uncompressed HD in RAID 5 with sustained performance, and this setup is the perfect complement to the AJA ioHD, Mac or PC. Click here to see the elane-1ex connecting a HDPro to a Mac Book Pro On PC or Mac Workstation platforms, our CalDigit RAID card supports expansion with 4 drives internal on a MacPro & 12 drives External via our 4 bay HDElement product.
