About Your G-SPEED Q

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the G-SPEED™ Q from G-Technology. G-SPEED Q is a high-speed, low cost storage solution that was designed to safeguard digital photos, audio and video libraries and documents.

This quiet, compact four-bay unit delivers solid, affordable RAID storage for both Mac us- ers and creative professionals doing high capacity tasks like HD video and photo editing. G-SPEED Q offers outstanding performance, high storage capacity and optional fail-safe operation at a low cost per gigabyte. Unlike single drive systems, if a hard drive failure occurs, your data is still safe and accessible. G-SPEED Q also features HGST Enterprise class hard drives for the best in performance and reliability.

With its built-in RAID controller, the G-SPEED Q is not tied to a single workstation and can be easily transported for use in the edit bay or on the road. The unit contains an inter- nal RAID controller and can be configured in RAID 0 (Performance) or RAID 5 (Protected) mode.
