Hi all :) I'm looking for a fairly large storage solution and the EdgeStore DAS501T seems to fit the bill in terms of capacity, I'd run it in RAID 5 configuration with 5 x 1.5TB drives.

I wondered if anyone had any experience with these devices or if anyone has a better suggestion, all input appreciated.

TIA
 
My dad has an edgestor 2 bay case with 2 x 1tb drives in, it will do raid 1, raid 0 or JBOD. he says its great and had no issues with it so far (1 Yr).

I have 2 similar 4 bay IDE enclosures that i have had for about 5 years for the oldest one and they have been great

It depends what you will use it for though, it doesn't look too bad for £160
 
Thanks for that, I need to archive a lot of large video files.

At the moment the files are spread across several drives in three machines and I'm almost out of space, finding files is a pita.

I want one big volume with some redundancy so I can index the files properly, this would give me some headroom for the future as well.
