摘要: A portable RAID device (100) has four hard disk drives (102a-102d) and a controller (104) within an enclosure (106). The controls the array according to at least level 5. input/output port (335, 340) configured connect computer, such that provides reliable, RAID-compliant external storage may be moved from computer computer. Input/output connectors on each drive face inward toward middle (124) of along one dimension. are arranged in compact 2 by pattern. space efficient layout allows house rectangular (106) with roughly same dimensions as laptop
