Advanced Features
Exclusive RAIDm monitoring and notification software provides instant access to the status of the RAID Array and allows for 24x7 RAID monitoring and notification.

Dual host connection can support two hosts simultaneously. Perfect for clustered environments, e.g. MSCS - Microsoft Cluster Server.

Up to sixteen half-height SCA Wide/Ultra3/LVD 3.5" SCSI disk drives.

RAID controller provides RAID 0, 0+1, 1, 3, and 5, Global Hot Spare Disk, Auto Rebuild, and up to 512 MB of SO-DIMM SDRAM-based data cache.

Intelligent SCSI backplane design (uses no cables) allows "hot swapping" of disk canisters, power supplies, and fans for increased reliability, lower cost, and ease of maintenance.

In-band SCSI monitoring and fault notification to fax / pager or e-mail.

Completely user configurable via the front panel.

Lightweight aluminum chassis design.

Environmental Monitor module allows observation of critical operating parameters via the front LCD panel.

Optional Serial-to-Ethernet converter for remote configuration and management.
