  EonStor® A16U-G2430
2x Ultra 320SCSI to SATA II 3U/16-bay RAID Subsystem with new ASIC 400 		 

 

  • Two (2) SCSI-320 host channels; transfer rate up to 320MBps per channel.
  • RoHS-compliant
  • Accommodates sixteen (16), 3Gbps, SATA-II disk drives.
  • ASIC400 architecture with hardware RAID6.
  • Market leading I/O performance
    • Sustained RAID5 Read/Write at 566/484 MB/sec.
    • Sustained RAID6 Read/Write at 566/426 MB/sec.
  • Up to 2GB DDR memory, ECC protected.
  • Hot-swappable, life expectancy-aware battery backup.
  • Online expansion, array roaming, and centralized management

The A16U-G2430 subsystem is capable of RAID functionalities and performance that IT managers will find appropriate in a wide range of applications. The embedded ASIC400 XOR engine comes with the highest redundancy RAID6 functionality. With a dedicated XOR, dual PCI-X busses, adaptive I/O and caching policies, the subsystem easily sustains high throughput and is capable of handling I/Os of various characteristics. Throughout a decade of RAID storage design, Infortrend developed many configurable features that help adapt RAID storage to applications ranging from multimedia playback to small-block database transactions.

Featuring fast hardware and a wide variety of array configuration capabilities, the subsystem is ideal for applications that require the reliability of SCSI RAID, expansion options, or simply dedicated performance.

The 3U subsystem provides sixteen (16) hot-swappable drive bays for SATA-II disk drives, from which you can build high redundancy RAID6/5/3/10 or high performance RAID0 arrays. Our sophisticated firmware allows you to fully utilize the benefits of SATA-II disk drives such as the fast drive-level performance by the 8MB drive buffer and by the Native Command Queuing protocol.

Specifications

RAID

  • Multiple arrays each with an independent RAID level
