The ThunderBay 4 mini is perfect for repurposing or maximizing 2.5-inch SSDs for a compact data storage solution. It’s big on performance and flexibility, yet ThunderBay 4 mini is about the length of a pencil and weighs only 3.1 pounds with SSDs. The rugged heat-dissipating aluminum enclosure features two Thunderbolt 3 (Thunderbolt 2/Thunderbolt backward compatible)1 for up to 1556MB/s speeds, so you have more than enough bandwidth to handle personal and business backups — all the way up to today’s highest resolution audio, photo, and video formats. If you are seeking big RAID performance that’s small enough to fit on a desk, in a rack, or on a DIT cart, your wish is now a reality.
With four drive bays, you can mix or match different brand and capacity 2.5-inch SSDs and HDDs. Use mixed drives independently or combine drives as a RAID with the included SoftRAID setup and management software. Available in a variety of pre-configured capacity solutions to achieve your desired balance of storage, performance, and data redundancy.
Whatever the day or project demands, the ThunderBay 4 mini is the perfect workflow solution:
- Expand production capabilities in industry-leading creative platforms like Final Cut X, Avid Pro Tools, Apple Pro Logic, and Adobe Lightroom
- Edit large images
- Manage massive photo and audio libraries
- Store drone videos
- Use it as a transport drive
With the ability to daisy-chain you can add up to five additional ThunderBay 4 mini solutions to create massive storage capacities. Merge them with SoftRAID for even more flexibility, capacity, and capability. Or if speed is what you’re after, connect multiple ThunderBay 4 mini solutions to multiple Thunderbolt 3 ports on your Mac or PC to achieve exponential speed capabilities. Beyond storage, the sky is the limit for what you can connect. Attach a 5K Thunderbolt display or two 4K displays. Place a USB 3.1 device at the end of the chain. With an extra Thunderbolt 3 port, you have the flexibility to add to your daisy-chain and master any task at hand.

SoftRAID RAID Utility Software
Data-center software on your desktop
Using RAID to store and manage data offers unparalleled performance and data security. OWC SoftRAID protects your life’s work with redundant storage options and disk failure monitoring. SoftRAID from OWC delivers the best of safety and speed, far outperforming hardware-only solutions.
The best of access speeds and data safety with countless disk configurations is a game-changer. With the ease of creating RAID volumes, the flexibility to use multiple enclosures and the foresight to prevent disk failure, SoftRAID helps you manage your data like a pro at a fraction of the cost.
- Create and/or delete raid volumes easily
- New disk? Test it first with certify
- Check your data or volume at any time
- Five raid levels for all uses
- RAID 0, 1, 4, 5, 1+0 (10)
- 24/7 Disk failure warning via email
When it comes to protection, SoftRAID stays steps ahead of data loss. SoftRAID checks new disks before you use them, warns you when a disk is about to fail, and keeps working after a disk fails.
If speed is what you’re after, SoftRAID leads the race. SoftRAID enables the use of up to 16 disks in a single volume or the ability to spread volumes over two or more enclosures for unprecedented speeds.
For optimal speed and safety, SoftRAID is in a class by itself.
SoftRAID checks new disks before you use them. New disk? SoftRAID's certify feature will tell you if your disk is bad, before you save precious data to it—protecting you against using a disk that is faulty or about to fail.
Always on and never in the way. SoftRAID Monitor runs scans in the background—even when you're not logged in—making it ideal for use on servers. And when you're logged in and working, it uses a minimum of CPU power, so you won't even notice it's there.
Keep working after a disk fails. If you use a SoftRAID mirror (RAID 1), RAID 4, RAID 5 or RAID 1+0 volume, your work is protected against disk failure. Even if one of your disks fails, you can keep right on working and make your deadline. None of your files will be lost. How great is that?
SoftRAID supports five levels of RAID optimized for speed, safety, or both. Any SoftRAID volume can have up to 16 disks.
- RAID 0 – Stripes
- Fastest
- RAID 1 – Mirrors
- Safest RAID
- RAID 4 – Dedicated Parity
- Fast and safe
- RAID 5 – Distributed Parity
- Fast and safe
- RAID 1+0 (10) – Stripes + Mirrors
- Fastest and safest

With built-in hardware RAID, you have four drive set-up choices:
*Independent (JBOD) keeps the drives as two separate and independent volumes
*RAID 0 (stripe) for optimal performance and maximum speed use
*RAID 1 (mirror) for the security and peace of mind of mirrored data
*Span combines the drive capacities to create one extra-large storage volume
Done with the drives but need the hub connectivity? Eject the Mercury Elite Pro Dual’s drives and any additional external drives connected to it from your computer in a single click with OWC’s free Dock Ejector app. You’ll be certain that all data has been written before any drive is unmounted, protecting against data loss.
At 5.8” high x 3.3” wide and weighing under four pounds with two SSDs installed, the Mercury Elite Pro Dual - USB-C can be taken anywhere you need an all-in-one storage and connectivity solution. It connects to USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 computers and can work cross-platform with Macs and PCs using OWC's MacDrive software (sold separately).
