RAID-5 has finally moved out of the IT room and into the studio, offering users an easy-to-use solution that delivers performance, ease-of-use and four connectivity options. S4FR is the ideal storage solution for digital audio recording & mixing, graphic design, video editing, digital photography and disk-based backup.
