Manage, Monitor, Modify
The CalDigit VR features an easy to read, orange backlight LCD screen, that indicates RAID capacity, RAID information and environmental monitor. It allows monitoring of system status, such as current activity, rebuilding progress, failure notification, unconfigured notification, verifying and if the CalDigit VR is unplugged. The environmental fan condition and internal temperature can also be monitored on the LCD screen. The RAID level can be easily configured on the multi-function panel. A cooler design.
A cooler design
The CalDigit technical team works with unparalleled effort to solve the overheating problem that many other storage products may have. The CalDigit VR comes with a quiet, reliable, ball-bearing fan which is specially designed to facilitate airflow from the top to the bottom, and from the front to the back of the hard drives. The CalDigit VR keeps the heat outside the workstation to protect all the valuable components that are installed.
On the go
The CalDigit VR is a worry free mobile unit, which works great with the AJA IoHD or the Matrox MXO 2. At CalDigit, we are proud to say that we were the one of the first companies to include support for laptops with its RAID storage systems. This is thanks to our internal RAID processor and GUI which makes it easy to configure the the CalDigit VR. Whether you are at home, at the studio, or anywhere in the field, the CalDigit VR gives you the freedom to work virtually anywhere.
Easy configuration and monitors
The CalDigit VR provides the ability to monitor system status with a user friendly GUI (graphic user interface). It also offers password protection to prevent unauthorized reading of confidential RAID settings. RAID Shield management provides advanced e-mail event notification of any fan failure, drive failure or even when the temperature exceeds normal limits.
