Figure 2. 12-bay VessRAID with the “plus” drive carrier design
A defective drive may be replaced without interruption of data availability to the
host computer. If so configured, a hot spare drive will automatically replace a
failed drive, securing the fault-tolerant integrity of the logical drive. The self-
contained hardware-based RAID logical drive provides maximum performance in
a compact external enclosure.
