Raidon Technology Announces Stardom UR2D-B32, a Professional Dual U.2 Hardware RAID Storage System
USB-C 20Gbps - RAID 1, BIG & JBOD - lockable front-access drive trays
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on August 20, 2026 at 2:01 pmRaidon Technology introduces the UR2D-B32, it is a professional dual-bay U.2 hardware RAID storage system designed for high-speed, serviceable workstation deployment.
Its USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C host interface provides up to 20Gbps link bandwidth, while the integrated hardware RAID controller supports RAID 1, BIG, and JBOD independently of the host operating system.
Unlike compact portable NVMe enclosures, the UR2D-B32 combines lockable front-access U.2 drive trays, dedicated power, active cooling, temperature and fan monitoring, audible alerts, and RAID rebuild-progress indicators. This serviceable architecture makes it well suited to sustained professional workloads including video production, CAD, workstation virtualization, digital asset management, software development, and high-speed local data protection.

Key Features
- USB-C 20Gbps Connectivity
USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C provides up to 20Gbps link bandwidth on compatible hosts. It is backward compatible with USB 3.2 Gen 2 at 10Gbps and USB 3.2 Gen 1 at 5Gbps and works with Thunderbolt™ 3, 4, and 5 USB-C ports in USB mode. Most Mac systems connect at up to 10Gbps - Dual U.2 and Optional M.2 NVMe Support
Supports two U.2 SSDs or two M.2 NVMe SSDs using optional UBOX Mini adapters. Lockable front-access metal trays simplify drive installation and replacement
- Hardware RAID Flexibility
The integrated hardware RAID controller supports RAID 1, BIG, and JBOD without requiring RAID software
|
Mode |
Function |
|
RAID 1 |
Mirrors data across both SSDs |
|
BIG |
Combines both SSD capacities |
|
JBOD |
Presents each SSD independently |
Changing the RAID mode erases all data
- Intelligent Monitoring
Front-panel LEDs and audible alerts indicate power, drive activity, drive failure, alarm conditions, and RAID rebuild progress at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% - Thermal Protection
The system monitors internal temperature and fan operation. If the temperature exceeds 60°C or the fan stops, the Alarm LED flashes and the buzzer sounds. Pressing the Mute button silences the buzzer but does not clear the alarm condition - Active Cooling and Dedicated Power
An aluminum enclosure, all-metal trays, and a 30mm High/Low-speed fan help manage heat during sustained workloads. A dedicated 12V/4.2A power adapter provides independent system power
