SoftRAID makes the RAID
SoftRAID RAID Management SoftwareAny drive can hold data. Not every drive can protect it. OWC’s SoftRAID RAID management software builds RAID 0/1/4/5/6/6+/10 arrays for speed, redundancy, or both - and keeps them healthy by monitoring performance and catching failures early so you never lose a project to a dying drive.
• RAID 6 and RAID 6+: Dual-Drive failure protection can protect your most critical data.
• Blazing-Fast Performance: Engineered with the latest driver technology to deliver maximum RAID speeds on macOS and Windows.
• Versatile RAID Options: RAID 0/1/4/5/6/6+/10, every level optimized to maximize the bandwidth of your drives and interface. (RAID 6/6+ requires macOS 27).
• Proactive Disk Protection: SoftRAID Monitor detects and warns you of potential drive failures before they happen on HDDs, SSDs, and NVMe.
• Cross-Platform Compatibility: Easily move Apple-formatted APFS and HFS+ volumes between Mac and Windows via built-in OWC MacDrive technology.
Your Data’s Reliability is #1 Priority
LongevityAnyone can put a bunch of components in a housing and call it an enclosure or a drive. OWC is not just anyone. They’re a group of filmmakers, musicians, designers, content creators, and parents just like you wanting to capture and preserve that irreplaceable moment. Their data storage products go through countless hours of ongoing development, testing and certification processes. They then subject them to extreme real-world abuse. The priority for some storage devices is to be a mass-produced, lowest-price commodity. They do it differently because the reliability of your data and the longevity of an OWC product are priority #1.
