| Usable storage
Many products advertise their storage sizes as raw amounts, not actually usable storage, when you add in important features like drive-failure redundancy. This row shows actual usable storage in each porduct's default configuration. Most products, including Haven, allow you to increase the failed-drive redundancy, but at a lower usable storage amount. | 16TB | 12TB | 12TB | |
| Redundancy
This shows the number of storage drives that can fail without losing data in the product's default configuration. Most products, including Haven, allow you to increase the failed-disk redundancy, but at a lower usable storage amount. | 1 drive | 0 drives | 0 drives | |
