looking for something like this:
http://www.sansdigital.com/mobileraid/mr4ut.html
but reviews for san digital suck, i need something that is external, will give me 4tb of redundant storage after raid (so either 2x4tb drives in raid 1, or 3/4 x 3tb drives in raid 5 (prefer 6 but most dont give this option)
it needs to have USB 3 and esata and do the raid internally
suggestions?
long story short i know its not a great setup but its only for an offsite repository for appassure backups, they were using USB drives and every time they tank we need to reseed a few tb of data... stupid setup, the server is a power edge 2900, internal bays are full, and is has a couple of perc 5 cards for an external array already, so ill be adding an esata card for this, usb onboard is 2.0
