Trying to squeeze some more storage in my MiniPC. I have questions about these. These use hardward RAID with selectable modes (Individual/JBOD/RAID1/RAID2).

  1. If I use RAID 1 and one of the drives fails, will I know?

  2. If a drive fails, and a slap in a new one, will it internally begin repairing RAID 1 again?

  3. Can I use these as “individual” or JBOD and have 2 separate drives through the same connector, and use something like TrueNAS to software-RAID them?

What I mean is that I’m not sure there are adapters from PCIE the interface nvme drive use to SATA. If I’m not mistaken they don’t work with nvme 4.0

There is no NVMe in this device. It’s all SATA. The M.2 drives are SATA
