RAID 0 is a bunch of disks striped together with no rududancy or safety net. With four, your best options are RAID 0 or RAID "10". You really need 6 or 7 to make them a good quality, robust solution. That said, neither work very well with 4 or fewer drives. RAID 6 has taken its slot, though it loses a little capacity in favor of a better parity scheme.

But from what I understand, RAID-5 has become "old school" in the world of RAIDs, and is now considered nearly obsolete in design. For more information, please go to dealt with a lot of raid configurations, but I wouldn't call myself an expert.

Blackmagic MultiDock 10G even supports the RAID software built in to most operating systems, so customers can customize their disk array for their needs. The built in power supply ensures no power is used from laptop batteries and it has enough power to run 4 high performance disks all at the same time for use in RAID configurations. Unlike consumer disk arrays, Blackmagic MultiDock is a compact and robust 1 rack unit all metal design that can be quickly installed into equipment racks. That's perfect for dual computer use or increased speed. Even though customers get all 4 disks connected to a single USB-C connection, customers can also split Blackmagic MultiDock 10G and get 2 disks on one USB-C connection and 2 disks on the second USB-C connection. MultiDock features a completely independent disk interface chip per disk slot so customers never get slowdowns because of SATA bandwidth issues. That’s more than enough bandwidth to handle the highest resolution video formats including 8K in H.265 from HyperDeck Extreme 8K. Blackmagic MultiDock uses advanced USB-C technology so customers get blazingly fast transfer speeds to their computer at up to 10 Gb/s with a single cable connection.
