Excellent Product Good Price . It took me 5 minutes to set the CalDigit VR to RAID 1, 1 TB. The setup instructions were very easy to understand and follow.

NOTE: During setup you need to decide what size 'block' you want. I chose 128k, as my files are mostly music and video, and range between 5 MB to 4 GB. You will want to choose a smaller block size if you are reading / writing smaller files.

I am using this drive to store 650 GB of video, audio, and photo. I have the drive connected via Firewire 800 to a Mac Mini - and both reside in my entertainment system.

The CalDigit drive is replacing a 1 TB Time Capsule that I was using as an external drive. Now I get to utilize the Time Capsule for what it was designed - backing up my Mac Mini.

iTunes, iPhoto, and iDVD - all really snap to life when accessing files on the CalDigit - it's really amazing.

My only complaint is the fan is fairly loud - not loud enough you can hear it during a movie, but loud enough you can hear it while watching television (assuming you don't watch television as loud as you watch a movie).

Overall I am extremely pleased with this unit, and would recommend it to anyone.
