RAID
In Safe 100 mode, the two physical disks are
mirrored together (RAID 1) so that one single logical
volume mounts on the desktop.
All of the data (100%) are saved simultaneously
on each disk (the available capacity cannot exceed the
available capacity of the lowest-capacity single disk).
ImpOrTANT INfO: If one physical disk fails, the
data are available immediately on the second disk. No
data are lost if one disk fails.
Characteristics and Advantages
Maximum data safety
Safe 100 reduces the total available capacity by
50% because two copies of the data are saved.
