Software

Creating an array is rather simple. It even supports RAID 3 which places parity data onto one drive only. While this is nice for three or four drives, it increasingly becomes a bottleneck with larger drive setups.

It's nice to see that the user has lots of possibilities - although most of them may not be used very often.
