Getting work done quickly while keeping data safe is paramount. In contrast, if a hardware RAID system fails and it's out of production or no longer supported, all the data could be lost. With SoftRAID, users replace a bad enclosure or upgrade, and the drives can be moved to that enclosure where data can be accessed without skipping a beat. Perhaps the biggest advantage of SoftRAID over a hardware RAID is that users are not locked into specific hardware in order to access data. The result is a fast and flexible RAID array that doesn't impact a computer's system or applications. Additionally, SoftRAID utilizes a computer's advanced processing power versus the slow processors found in most hardware RAID enclosures.
With SoftRAID, users can spread volumes over two or more drive enclosures for mind-boggling performance over a single hardware RAID device. SoftRAID unshackles users from expensive hardware RAID technology that's not upgradeable or expandable. With SoftRAID Lite and Lite XT, Windows users can create super-fast RAID 0 sets or ultra-secure RAID 1 sets, certify new disks before use, receive warnings when a disk is about to fail, and restore data quickly with fast rebuilding.
Risk-free: 30-day free trial of fully functional application. Thorough: full TRIM support improves internal and external SSD performance in all RAID levels. Built-in MacDrive technology, SoftRAID Lite and Lite XT let users exchange arrays between Windows and macOS computers. Vigilant: early warning prediction helps protect against unexpected drive failure. Certified: thoroughly scans drives before use to ensure they are safe for data storage. Verified: volume validation ensures sectors can be read, parity is correct, and volume failure is minimized. Flexible: create RAID 0, 1 volumes with SoftRAID Lite and Lite XT (Windows). New licensing of SoftRAID now enables an unlicensed version of SoftRAID to still read/write RAID volumes, making it easier to move them between different computers and locations. Featuring an all new, streamlined interface, users work worry-free with disks checked and verified before use plus early warnings prevent unexpected disk failure. It's ideal for voluminous data roles including audio/video production and editing, photography, graphic design, database servers, financial applications, and more. SoftRAID is the powerful yet easy-to-use RAID software platform that maximizes drive capacity, offers faster performance, and protects against data loss.
