Yes, but that's how I had them setup and that's how the MPC One will be. It's also how I pull samples into any MPC that is connected to my network. As long as it has USB. This year, I'm upgrading to the SA3600.

Nice. I use a cloud-based service called "Blackblaze" (unlimited data, and I'm approaching about 12 TB to date), as well as a local 8TB attached mirrored drive for just my audio-related content.

@Enoch, That's cool. I love it cause you need keys to open it, l use the eSata and its nice and study and has weight to it. Plus it looks very nice.
The top Reason l love it:

" G-Technology G-SPEED Q 12TB High Speed RAID Array external hard drive with eSATA, USB 2.0 & Firewire 800. Works as Raid 0 (fastest and maximum storage space) or RAID 5 (default. Adds redundancy. One drive can fail and you still keep all your data"
