That’s either a bad case or a bad drive.
This gives you a good explanation of next-gen raid solutions (like ZFS):
TL;DW: ZFS is a software raid that has copy on write features (it writes new chunks to a different location on disk then updates the pointer (this allows consistent state on power failure) and also does instant snapshotting, along with a whole host of other things like thin “partitions” (ZFS calls them datasets) and SSD caching of HDD storage. (I wrote an article called ZFS - SSD speeds at HDD capacities)
It’s wonderful, but not available on Windows. The good thing is that FreeNAS is basically a plug and play solution for a headless fileserver.
This video should give you enough of an overview of freenas, for the current version:
