If there is a drive failure in RAID 1 the volume will stay mounted to your Mac and remain accessible ( the controller in the 2big will automatically switch to the still functioning drive in the set ) The Front BLUE LED on the 2big will turn RED to alert you to a problem with the unit. This means that the Mac OS Disk Utility will only see the one volume and not each drive individually, so you will not see the mirrored drive in Finder or Disk Utility. The 2big Dock is a hardware RAID and uses the LaCie RAID Manager ( LRM ) software to view and manage the controller in the unit. Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2 are only supported when Apple's Thunderbolt 3 (USB Type-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter is used with systems running macOS 10.12 Sierra or later.

Additionally, there is a DisplayPort interface that supports 720p, 1080p, 4K, and 5K displays. If you need to power your laptop, the USB Type-C port provides 27W of power, while the Thunderbolt 3 interface provides 15W of power for charging USB Type-C laptops. The Thunderbolt 3 interface can also be used to connect two 4K displays or one 5K display, as well as daisy-chain up to five additional Thunderbolt 3 peripherals together. The back of the 2big is equipped with two 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 ports and one 5 Gb/s USB 3.0 Type-C port, all of which allow you to interface with your host system at speeds up to 550 MB/s. While the 2big is compatible with Windows 10 and macOS 10.12, it comes formatted as HFS+ for Mac, and is configured as hardware-controlled RAID 0, which provides performance gains, but no data redundancy.
