Serious Storage. In Your Pocket.
The CalDigit VR mini is an innovative, compact and bus powered two drive RAID system, supporting a quadruple interface for easy connectivity. The CalDigit VR mini's modular design provides two removable drive modules and an easy to read frontside LCD.
With support for RAID 0, 1, and JBOD the CalDigit VR mini can reach speeds fast enough for high definition video editing. It includes easy to use software allowing for firmware updates, configuration, and monitoring which even supports email notification. The CalDigit VR mini packs a ton of performance into a small, bus powered package, making it a truly portable storage solution that can fit in the palm of your hand.
Manage, Monitor, Modify
The easy to read orange back lit LCD provides valuable data and added confidence that's just a glance away. Additionally LED status lights provide a visual representation of the CalDigit VR mini's operation. As if that's not enough an audible alert can also be set.
An advanced environmental monitor provides detailed information about temperature and hard drive health, so you are alway in the know. This data is extremely important, especially when using the CalDigit VR mini in the field. This information is available through the LCD or RAID Tool.
A cooler design
The CalDigit VR mini is designed with an all aluminum enclosure to assist with heat dissipation. Heat can cause damage to hard drives, and fans can add unwanted noise. The CalDigit VR mini takes advantage of the latest technology, ensuring both a cool and quiet experience.
Easy configuration and monitor
The CalDigit VR mini comes with advanced software called RAID Tool that provides easy management, monitoring, diagnostic reports, email notifications, and firmware update capabilities. This provides users with interactive assurance. RAID Tool is the command center for the CalDigit VR mini.
Advanced modular design
DesignThe CalDigit VR mini has two removable drive modules, allowing for easy replacement and expansion. This added flexibility makes it easy to archive data. Instead of storing an entire enclosure, with the CalDigit VR mini only the drive modules need to be stored. The advanced modular design even allows for easy replacement of the fan.
The sleek and sexy design is as functional as it is good looking. The all aluminum enclosure provides additional heat dissipation. The mesh aluminum design matches with many of today's popular workstations and the orange back lit LCD is easy on they eyes.
The CalDigit VR mini has everything you need in the box. While other solutions require an additional purchase to use eSATA, the CalDigit VR mini includes an eSATA extender standard. This extender is a additional $29.99 value, which CalDigit includes free. This allows a direct connection to the internal SATA ports found on many modern workstations, including the Mac Pro. In addition the CalDigit VR mini includes an eSATA cable and FireWire 800 cable.
