Raid

Two RAID (Redundant Array of Independant Disks) Storage Options are now available for DocSTAR. Both work in tandem with an optical drive in a unique two-tiered storage system. The RAID storage provides fast retrieval with fault tolerance, and the optical drive provides archival disks for off-site storage.

Note that an internal RAID is now standard in most models.
