  1. For hard drive capacity measurements, 1Gb = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
  2. Automatic rebuild requires a designated hot spare; not available for RAID level 0.
  3. Actual rates will vary depending on configuration and RAID level.
  4. Weight varies by configuration and manufacturing process.
