BIG Mode (JBOD/Spanning) 

In JBOD mode two hard disk will simply be bound for one, the 
merger hard drive performance will be same as single hard disk. 
The total capacity of the portable hard disk equal to the sum of two 
hard drive capacity. In this mode the system starts to storage from 
the first disk and switches to the second hard drive when the 
storage space of the first disk is. If one of the two HDDs appears 
damaged, then all of the data in the two hard disk will be lost.
