min

UniFi Drive 3.0 brings a fresh and flexible storage management experience to users of all levels. Whether you're setting up simple redundancy or managing enterprise-grade workloads, this release is designed to scale with you. Here’s a closer look at what’s new and why it matters.

Simplified RAID Setup

Setting up storage redundancy is now easier than ever. With UniFi Drive 3.0, you can choose the RAID level that best fits your needs:

  • RAID 5 for basic single-drive fault protection
  • RAID 6 for advanced protection with dual-drive fault tolerance
  • RAID 10 for enhanced performance and speed

Need stronger protection? Seamlessly upgrade from RAID 5 to RAID 6 to move from single to dual-drive redundancy. Whether you're running a small office or scaling your IT infrastructure, UniFi Drive gives you the flexibility to balance reliability and performance based on your storage demands.

RAID 5, 6 and 10 offer the perfect blend of capacity, redundancy and performance for everyday storage needs.

Flexible RAID Groups

UniFi Drive 3.0 addresses the common issue of mismatched drive capacities by allowing users to create adaptable RAID groups.

  • Mix and match drives of different sizes
  • Maintain storage efficiency without hardware compromise
  • Designed to maximize usable space
Flexible RAID groups maximize storage efficiency while keeping your data safe.

Storage Pools for Custom Workloads

The new Storage Pools feature allows multiple RAID groups to run independently, each optimized for its specific role.

  • Tailor RAID groups to specific applications
  • Separate high-performance and fault-tolerant tasks
  • Run mixed environments without conflict
Isolated RAID pools deliver top performance with built-in reliability.

Expanded Cloud Integrations

Cloud storage options now include major platforms, with even more integrations coming soon.

  • Current support for Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive
  • S3, BackBlaze, and Wasabi integrations launching soon
  • Streamlined backup and sync workflows
Multi-cloud support offers freedom to store data your way.

Improved File Management Experience
