imagine you have say 5 platter, each platter is each hdd, then you make it run Raid 5, and on the PCB its already a Raid 5 configuration. so your output will be maxed out... issue is the bandwidth...
so imagine if the mirroring is done internally since there is no need for it to go thru the board or chip, hence that part is done on the pcb, and only 2/3 sata ports needed to be linked to the system. maybe even 1 thats maybe able to provide higher bandwidth.

This is
to me. Nothing bad about theory. The idea each platter is each hdd is cool
Maybe one of these days, will get to see such harddisk
I guess as for now, majority would prefer the pc configuration options available now?
