G-RAID2 – The Second Generation is Here!
Introduced in 2004, the original G-RAID from G-Tech was revolutionary in its ability to support professional content creation applications via FireWire. G-RAID fundamentally changed the video storage industry by providing unprecedented performance, reliability and affordability in a simple and beautifully designed package.

The Latest in Storage Technology
The new dual-drive G-RAID2 builds on the original G-RAID design by incorporating the latest and greatest disk storage technology currently available including two Hitachi 7200 RPM SATA II hard drives each with up to 32MB of cache and the new Oxford 924 bridge chipset. The use of these latest generation components enables G-RAID2 to offer superior performance and reliability for demanding content creation applications.

Triple Interface & Storage Capacities
up to 2000GB
G-RAID2 features a new triple interface design with FireWire 400, FireWire 800 and USB 2.0 connectivity. G-RAID2 is now available in storage capacities up to an amazing 2000 GB in the same compact form factor.

Guaranteed Performance
Real-world performance within an application is the most important factor to consider when purchasing a RAID system. While benchmark numbers can be used to quantify the raw read/write performance of a storage system, they do not translate in to real-world performance.

NOTE:The stream counts above are calculated using a G-RAID2 filled to 80% capacity and incorpoarte a full seek from the first file to the last file on the drive. This is the MINIMUM GUARANTEED performance from a G-RAID2. Stream counts will be significantly greater on a clean drive. This is real-world performance and not just marketing hype! Remember, we know video.
