Aloha from Maui! Just discovered TWiT Know How and have a lot of catching up to do :-)

 

I'm currently using a CRU Toughtech Duo with 2 Sandisk Extreme II SSDs in it for video editing in the field. The Duo keeps asking me to rebuild the RAID every few days, even though there is nothing wrong with the SSDs.  CRU tech support is "aware of the issue" but has no solutions  

 

Really liked ep 146 where you showed the fast DIY USB drive.  Do you know if anyone makes an mSATA raid enclosure?  Thinking it might be a way to replace my Toughtech Duo.

Mahalo for the tip Padre, though it looks like the DS414slim is more geared for home use.  Looking for something small and bus powered that I can use for editing video on a laptop in the field. I might just go for two of those DIY USB drives you showed us. :-)

Yeah, looks like scary raid (0), mirror (1), or single-drive are the only modes available.

 

I'm not a photographer, so I don't know what your contemporaries are using, but I'd be interested to hear their mobile storage suggestions. About the best I can offer is something similar to this >>> http://www.amazon.com/ZTC-Enclosure-Adapter-SuperSpeed-ZTC-EN002/dp/B00I4701O6

 

If your mSATA drives are longer than 50mm there may be a similar device to accommodate those.
