No it's not when you compare it to a similar product with fw800 and hardware raid. What are you comparing it to exactly?

Agreed. Not that bad. Would pick one up but my current MP doesn't have TB. Doubt they'll sell an expansion card either...

add 4 1tb drives for 300 you are at 700

700 vs 1000 and the 1000 piece of gear kills it. or compare to this

from owc it is 550 and it is pretty good but a lot slower then the promise.

what really matters is getting an empty unit for T-bolt.

4 series 470 samsung ssds would be at 980MB/s in a raid0. that would be fast.
