## Description

From the manufacturer OWC Mercury Elite Pro Dual Performance RAID Enclosure Mac / PC / USB3.1 Gen 1 / eSATA Professional Grade Solution Mercury Elite Pro Dual is the best dual-drive hardware RAID solution for creative workflows, project archives, and system backups where reliability and versatile performance count. With two fast hard drives, easily configured in multiple RAID modes at the flick of an easy-access switch, Mercury Elite Pro Dual is built to seamlessly integrate with any work environment from high demand production studios to your home office. The Hardware RAID Workhorse Reliable hardware RAID maximizes the full potential of two 3.5" 7200RPM hard drives in the Mercury Elite Pro Dual. It comes configured in high-speed RAID 0 mode for the maximum sustained throughput from your drives. With speeds up to 407MB/s, that's fast enough for HD video workflows. Configure the Mercury Elite Pro Dual in RAID 1 mode for the extra security of mirrored data, set up a span of the two drives, or use them independently. Performance by Design Mercury Elite Pro Dual features both high-speed USB 3.1 Gen 1 & eSATA ports to offer the connectivity and versatility to work with your current equipment at extreme speeds. A second-generation, free-flowing brushed-aluminum chassis with high-performance fan delivers cool, quiet operation. In addition, drive-activity LEDs give you an instant snapshot of the status of your RAID, and intelligent power management conserves energy and reduces wear by automatically spinning down the drives when inactive .

Review: Great Storage unit - I bought this to use as a file server with a Raspberry Pi. I used two 4TB drives in independent mode initially and it worked a treat. So good in fact that I tried it in RAID 0 and RAID 1 modes and plugged it in to a Mac and Windows PC. Performed close to max speed of the USB 3.0 ports and is now back to two independents discs, one as a file server, the other video. In my case An inexpensive way to reuse old drives. Highly recommended!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this enclosure work with ssd (solid state drives)?**
A: Hello! Yes this enclosure will work with SSD's. However they will not fit in the drive bays without the use of a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter Bracket. We recommend the Newertech Adaptadrive (found here: http://a.co/8beqOas) for situations like this.

**Q: In raid 1, if one drive fail and after the failed drive is replaced, can this enclosure rebuild its raid 1 without being connected to the pc?**
A: Hello.  This enclosure would need to be connected to a computer in order to properly power on and rebuild the RAID after a failure.

**Q: If one drive fails, is it as easy as just pulling the failed drive and adding a new one if configured in Raid 1?**
A: Yes - though pulling involves powering the unit down and disassembling it, especially if the failed drive is in bay #1. It no longer matters which bay the new drive is in - the unit will rebuild to the empty drive. 
This is a huge improvement from their older RAID units where the good drive had to be in bay 1 because it copied from bay 1 to bay 2 no matter regardless of which was the empty drive.

**Q: I am considering this enclosure to set up two 6 tb hard drives on raid 1. which would you recommend: western digital black, blue or red drives?**
A: All versions should work paired in the enclosure, but are rated for different applications.  Black is the higher performance drive: Video work and higher access speeds at 7200rpm.  Red is for long life in constant "trickle" streaming as in security, or for building a NAS, at 5400rpm.  Blue is for general "consumer" storage applications at 5400rpm.  There is also a Purple that is specified for security video use, but I usually use Reds for that application due to availability.

Muy buena caja!

### ⭐ Not worth it - useless.
*by K***R on 2 March 2025*

Stopped working ('the disk structure is corrupted and unreadable') less than two months after installing. This kind of device should be of the 'set it up and forget it' kind. If you can't trust it to work properly, it is quite simply useless.
