How are you defining RAID? 1,5,10 JBOD what? It was my understanding that multi-spindle implementation were not supported.
A Raid HDD? Raid 1 or 5 or what are you asking. Several in a server that backs up to each other or spreads across multiple drives? Well looked at you other thread about the Vantec NexStar MX. So you have it and I have a feeling that few even here are doing that. When it is hooked up is it configed in 0 or 1? I've a docking staion and see no reason to going to a RAID set up.

No, it's in the right place. RAID EHD. Dish support? Huh? It's hardware RAID, invisible to the STB. But it's redundant. If an HDD goes bad, the other keeps on trucking and I lose nothing (it's RAID 1, mirrored). Since there's only 2 HDDs in the enclosure, RAID 5 would not be an option (poor performance/limited redundancy, no real reason for 5 with only 2 disks). Docking station is fine, but there's no redundancy. I've lost too much to dead HDDs (loved that 721 anyway), did not want to take any chances on the important stuff.
It's easy. Open the unit, flip dip toggles 2 up & 2 down for RAID 1, slide in the two SATA HDDs, plug it in and turn on the power switch. Press reset. Reassemble. 1 TB of mirrored storage.
