## Long description

OWC ThunderBay 4 RAID 5 is a four-bay HDD/SSD enclosure for 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives that combines a compact desktop chassis with high-capacity, high-performance storage. The unit supports SATA I/II/III drives, hardware-accelerated transfer rates up to 20 Gbit/s, and a maximum combined capacity of 32 TB. Designed for desktop expansion, backup tasks, media editing, and small NAS-like workflows, the ThunderBay 4 RAID 5 offers configurable RAID modes including RAID 5 and JBOD and ships with SoftRAID software for advanced monitoring and management. The enclosure is finished in black and weighs 3.9 kg.
Advantages
ThunderBay 4 RAID 5 delivers the speed and flexibility of a modern four-bay enclosure with software-assisted RAID management that improves rebuild times and offers drive health monitoring and e-mail notifications. The included SoftRAID software enables faster RAID 5 performance than many comparable hardware-based arrays and provides the ability to reconfigure, update and monitor arrays from the host system. The compact black chassis provides an accessible desktop footprint while supporting both 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives for straightforward capacity scaling up to 32 TB.
Suitable for
Video editing workflows (2K/4K) that require sustained throughput and redundancy
Audio production and multitrack recording where large, reliable scratch volumes are needed
Photography and large image library management and editing
Desktop backup and archival storage with redundancy (RAID 5)
Small team shared storage or NAS-like setups where a compact, high-capacity enclosure is preferred
Key specifications
Drive bays: 4 bays, supports 2.5" and 3.5" drives
Supported drive interfaces: Serial ATA (SATA) I/II/III
Maximum combined capacity: up to 32 TB
RAID modes: RAID 5, JBOD (software RAID via included SoftRAID)
Data transfer capability: up to 20 Gbit/s
Chassis colour: black
Weight: 3.9 kg
How to use
Install compatible SATA 2.5" or 3.5" drives into the four drive bays following the enclosure's drive insertion procedure, secure the drives as instructed by the manual, and connect the ThunderBay 4 RAID 5 to your host system using the appropriate interface cable. Install the included SoftRAID software on the host machine to configure the desired RAID mode (for example RAID 5 for redundancy and performance) and enable drive monitoring and e-mail notifications. After creating and formatting the array in the host OS, the ThunderBay will appear as a single logical volume ready for use in editing, backup, or general storage tasks.
Usage recommendations
Use enterprise- or NAS-rated SATA drives when building RAID 5 arrays for improved longevity and consistency. Regularly enable and review drive health monitoring and e-mail alerts in SoftRAID, and keep backups of critical data even when using RAID 5 to protect against accidental deletion or multiple-drive failures. For video editing, use consistent drive models and capacities across bays and ensure your host interface and system can sustain the advertised transfer rates for optimal performance.
