Q: 1. does it support wifi connection or does it have to be hard wired to the computers?

A: Hardwired via a Thunderbolt 3 cable.

Q: 2. Are these solid state drives?

A: Yes!!!

Q: 3. Where's the fan sound? Ive been using this unit for 3 days and feels a little hot, but the fan doesnt start. Also I connected my 2nd display to the TB port of this unit and doesn't work... Am I missing something?

A: Just turned on my 8TB G-RAID TB. There is a startup sound, then it has only a very faint sound, which I assume is the fan but I'm not really sure. I searched the G-Tech support pages but couldn't find anything specific to the G-RAID fan. There was something about another model, G-Safe, having a fan that only comes on when the drive overheats. But I don't know if that applies to the G-RAID too. I have a vague memory that my drive case sometimes feels a little warm and maybe reading somewhere that that's OK. But if yours feels really hot, you might want to just return it and ask to exchange it for another one. Also, do you have at least 4 inches of free space around all sides of the drive? I think that's supposed to be especially important in the rear, in terms of good ventilation.

Q: 4. Is this okay to use in Europe? And if so, is there a power cord that I could use there with this?

Q: 8. Can I configure the unit so that one drive becomes a mirror of the other? I want to back-up photos on one 4 TB drive and, at the same time, back them up on the other.

A: The answer is yes and the instructions to do that are on G-Tech site. No need to download any utility. Since I cannot post a link here you should go to their support section and enter answer.aspx?ID=14045 in their search field. There you will see step-by-step how to use Disk Utility to Create a RAID 1 (Mirrored) Array

Q: 9. Is the drive 2x4tb or 2x2tb?

A: It is pre-configured as RAID 0, therefore it has 2x 2TB drives. RAID 0 is not redundant, therefore you do not lose any drive capacity. If this were pre-configured as a RAID 1 and still said 4TB G-RAID , it would be 2x4TB since the 2 drives would mirror each other, giving you a total of 4TB usable space.

Q: 10. Does G-RAID 8TB means the actual capacity is 4TB?

A: If you leave the unit as RAID 0, then you will have 8TB capacity, and the device would be used as a working drive. If you reconfigure it as RAID 1 (mirror) then you will have 4TB of useable space, and a duplicate of your data on the 2nd drive.
