Q: 1. What's the default password for the G-Raid Configurator utility? I can't reformat it and their support site is awful

A: The G-Raid Configurator does not require a password for the drive. It is most likely requesting an administrator username, and password for your computer. This would be the same password required to install applications, or make system changes.

Q: 2. do these drives get hot? I have one and I can barely touch it it's so hot.

A: Mine does not get hot at all and it's remarkably quiet.

Q: 3. can i chain my 8tb G-raid to a 12tb g-raid external drive?

A: I have it daisy chained to a series of 8TB thunderbolt drives. Thunderbolt 2 and the original are the same physical connectors.

Q: 4. What kind of drives are compatible? Can I replace a drive with 3.5 SATA III?

A: The proper replacement drive for this array is the 4TB Spare 4000 Enterprise Hard Drive. http://bhpho.to/1xuQIi8

Q: 5. Any real downsides to running the drive as JOBD, using software like carbon copy to use the second drive as a clone and backup daily? In JOBD, does my computer recognize two drives on the desktop? Im kinda paranoid running RAID 1 because if the RAID controller gets damaged or something, itll cost thousands to recover my data. I know its unlikely, but this company doesnt offer data recovery with their warranty, theyll just give you a new unit. If I run JOBD, I ASSUME I could swap one of the drives into a standard controller/housing and recover my data?

A: I assume you could do as you say, running it as JBOD and using CCC to back-up but you face the issue of having only a single copy of the data for up to a day (until your scheduled back-up runs).Running RAID 1 gives you 'immediate' mirroring to protect your data against a hard disk failure. What is more likely to fail? The hard disk or the RAID controller?If you want to do JBOD, you are paying a lot of extra money for this unit and wouldn't be getting maximum value out of it. I ran it as RAID 1, so i took advantage of what the drive offers, and used CCC to back that up to another single hard drive for 'backup'.

Q: 6. Can you daisy these and have access to other raid configurations besides just 0,1 and JBOD?

A: Yes you can and raid 5 would also work for an OWC but no support to power a Mac.

Q: 7. photo?

A: You would be able to store photos on this drive.

Q: 8. Will the unit back up my photo files within the same folders as I have them in Lightroom? Or will the photos be in some other open list format?

A: If you're backing up with time machine, yes. If these will be your working files, no. Once you move the parent folder (outside LR) you will have to refresh the folder's location so that LR knows that your photos are now in a different hard drive even if they are under the same structure.

Q: 9. Are the removable drives proprietary or can I use my own drives?

A: The drives designed to work with it are attached to a carrier that fits in the RAID unit. If you don't mind taking apart the original drives and removing and reattaching the carrier, you could use other drives as well.

Q: 10. Can you replace or swap out the drives in the future? or if one fails?

A: Yes, it is only important that you used matched drives. The unit has currently been tested with up to 12TB drives.
