ARC-5060 (Hi-Speed eSATA/USB 2.0/iSCSI/AoE)
|
|
|
|
The ARC-5060 RAID controller offers a truly innovative eSATA(3.0Gbps)/USB2.0/ iSCSI/AoE solution for use with your PC and Mac workstation. With RAID box technology, it allows two HDDs failure without impact on the existing data and failed drive rebuild is transparent to the host.
|
 |
Designed and leveraged with Areca high volume RAID controllers experience, this RAID box brings a level of data reliability and availability to cost- sensitive storage platforms that were typically available only with high-end enterprise-class storage systems. The introduction of the industry's first 16 channels eSATA solution provides a major benefit for thoses applications requiring cost-effective RAID solutions that take advantage of low cost, high capacity SATA disk drives. ARC-5020-3 re-driver board guarantees the signal from internal SATA connector to the eSATA connector which can meet eSATA the electrical compliance requirements. |
