ARC-8100
(16-port 3Gb SAS-to-SAS Redundant Controller)
| The ARC-8000 series external RAID controller features two 4Gb Fibre/two Min SAS 4x 3Gb SAS host and SAS device attachment. The array controller provides reliable data protection for servers and offers a new level polynomial technology to implement the extreme performance RAID 6 function. |
|
| The controller can provide up to (122) SAS/SATA ll peripheral devices using SAS expanders. Applications that benefit most features from these controllers include NAS, server, medical imaging, supercomputing, multi-media on demand (MOD) and streaming applications server. |
