SATA Hardware RAID 5 Drive Rackmount

 
This sleek 1U rack mount enclosure has a built in hardware RAID controller and houses five (5) high capacity SATA I or SATA II disks and connects via a single eSATA cable.  
 
The perfect solution for large storage libraries, digital video & digital audio files and backups...all application that needs fast, reliable, and easy to manage storage!  Needing huge storage capacity in a small space?  Using four of the enclosures, in only a 4U rack mount space you can mount TWENTY (20) SATA drives!  Using 2TB hard drives, that's up to FORTY (40) Terabytes of near line storage in a 4U space!

Built-in hardware RAID controller supports:

• RAID 0 (Striping) — allows the enclosure to performance stripe the drives, to provide maximum throughput to the direct attached PC/Server.
• RAID 1 — allows the enclosure to automatically copy primary hard drive without any CPU loading.
• RAID 3 (Byte-level data striping with dedicated parity drive) — good choice in applications where large files comprise all of the workload.
• RAID 5 (Striping with Parity) — provides the perfect balance between very high performance and data integrity.
• RAID 10 (Mirrored Stripe) — provides 100% data redundancy plus offers increased performance by striping across 2 disks.
• JBOD or Port Multiplier* — allows the direct attached PC/Server to see the drives in the enclosure as just a bunch of drives.
