This 8 drive enclosure and SATA PCI Express controller
provide superb performance! Compatible with Mac Pro, recent Power Mac G5s,
plus Windows and Linux PCI Express equipped computers!
Super performance: Over 500MB/sec of sustained
transfer rate!
- Ultimate Performance - RAID 0
- In tests with an Apple Mac Pro in a RAID 0 configuration, sustained reads of 538MB/s
with writes of 546MB/s have been achieved!
- Hi-Performance with Redundancy - RAID 5
- Tests using an Apple Mac Pro in a RAID 5 configuration produced sustained reads of 470MB/s
with writes of 475MB/s!
Need even more speed? If you have two open x4 compatible PCI Express
slots, you can combine two of the cards and enclosures! Using the
two cards and two enclosures populated with 16 hard drives provides sustained
throughput of up to 800MB/s in RAID 5 and up to 1000MB/s in RAID 0 with a
maximum capacity of 16TB!
 Enclosure
houses 8 high performance SATA II 3Gb/s, 16MB cache hard drives and connects to
the included PCI Express SATA controller via two high-quality 6 foot long
locking Multilane /mini SAS cables (also included). Thanks to the funnel
air intake design and the huge 120mm exhaust fan, the enclosure moves a
tremendous amount of air across the drives keeping them cool, but is very quiet.
If there is ever a need to replace a hard drive it's quick and easy! Simply
unlock the slot mechanism and slide the hard drive out, there are no drive
trays! Slide in the new drive (automatically lines up correctly) and lock
the slot mechanism. Done!
Huge capacity and tremendous speed make the enclosure and card ideal for:
-
Video Editing: 10 bit Uncompressed HD, 10 bit Uncompressed SD,
Multi-Stream SD, DVCPRO HD, HDV and DV
-
Digital Libraries: Photo libraries, MP3 libraries, Motion Graphics libraries
