## Long description

OWC ThunderBay 4 mini is a compact 4-bay HDD/SSD enclosure for 2.5" SATA drives that supports up to four storage devices and connects to a host via USB Type-C at up to 40 Gbit/s. The enclosure supports hardware RAID configurations (0, 1, 4, 5, 10) to balance performance, redundancy, and capacity and is supplied in black. It is designed for desktop storage expansion, backup targets, video editing scratch disks, and small NAS-style setups while allowing users to populate the bays with their choice of 2.5" SSDs or HDDs.
Advantages
The ThunderBay 4 mini combines a small footprint with multi-drive storage flexibility and RAID options to meet different workflow needs. A USB-C 40 Gbit/s host interface provides high-bandwidth connectivity for large files and real-time editing tasks. The enclosure accepts mixed 2.5" SATA drives and supports RAID configurations for higher throughput, mirrored redundancy, or aggregated capacity. Tool-less tray installation and a front panel security lock make drive access and replacement straightforward.
Suitable for

How to use
Install 2.5" SATA drives into the supplied trays and slide each tray into a bay until it seats and connects. Configure RAID using the included SoftRAID software or the enclosure's management tools to select the desired RAID level for performance, redundancy, or capacity. Connect the enclosure to a host computer via the USB-C port and format the created volume as required by your operating system before transferring data or integrating into editing or backup workflows.
