Configure HP Z Turbo Drive Quad Pro

The HP Z Turbo Drive Quad Pro supports up to four M.2 NVMe drives, performing at 2500MB/s each. We use the most reputable brands and highest performing models. 250GB to 2TB drives are Samsung. 4TB and 8TB drives are Sabrent, PNY, or Corsair. Any drive combination can be installed on the Z Turbo Drive Quad Pro:

1. one, two, three, or four drives.
2. any combination of capacities.
   1. For example two 1TB and one 4TB.
3. a combination of RAIDs
   1. For example, two 1TB as one stripe RAID0 and two 2TB as another mirror RAID1.
4. a combination of independent and RAID
   1. For example, one drive for the operating system and three drives in RAID0 performance for active projects. This is a very popular setup because:
      1. Your OS / Applications drive and your projects drive will occupy only one PCIe slot.
      2. The faster your active projects drive, the better. With three drives in stripe RAID0, you achieve about 6000MB/s. Plus, you have a single primary drive performing at 2500MB/s which is still super fast.

RAID 0 (Stripe RAID for Performance)

Two 1TB drives in RAID 0 will be arranged as a single 2TB partition. The data on the partition will be split on both drives. This allows for the data to take advantage of the performance of both drives. It’s great for performance, but since the data is split between the drives, if one drive fails on the RAID, all data is lost. Thus, it is important to back up all data that is saved on the RAID 0, order four 1TB and four 512GB SM961 from marketology,

RAID 0 works with two, three, or four drives.

• Two Drive RAID 0 - About 4000MB/s
• Three Drive RAID 0 - About 5000MB/s
• Four Drive RAID 0 - About 7500MB/s

RAID 1 (Mirror RAID for Backup/Redundancy)

Two 1TB drives in RAID 0 will be arranged as a single 1TB partition.
Everything copied to one drive will be mirrored to the second drive automatically. If one drive fails, the other drive will have all data saved.

RAID 1 works only with two drives.
