USB3.0 + Buffalo Tools = Even faster file transfer speeds

USB3.0 provides interface speeds up to 5 Gbps(theoretical speed). The feature-rich software suite, Buffalo Tools, accelerate the reading and writing speeds of both your computer and hard drive.

FLEXIBLE STORAGE AND AUTOMATIC DATA PROTECTION

DriveStation Due provides users the flexibility to easy maximize capacity or protect their data using RAID redundancy.
RAID 1 offers maximum redundancy by mirroring both drivers. Data is automatically duplicated, so that if one drive fails, the data is kept safe on the other. Buffalo recommends RAID 1 for all devices using two hard drives.
RAID 0 combine both drives into a single array offering maximum storage capacity with no redundancy.

TurboPC

Utilizing the high speed RAM of your Windows PC, TurboPC can increase file transfer rates by up to 2X over competing USB2.0 portable hard drives by making system adjustments to increase performance substantially.
