Because the Raptor and the Excel NAS servers are based on the same platform, it shouldn't come as a surprise that they have an identical feature set. Unlike the Excel NAS', however, the Raptor's drives are internal, and not hot-swappable. However, throughout our testing, we experienced some oddities. For example, the server occasionally failed to respond, which after rebooting caused the RAID set to resynchronize. Unless price is your overriding concern, the Excel NAS is the better of the two Microtest-based implementations.
