MegaRAID -PowerPC - 440 @ 533MHz enthusiasts to enjoy the latest RAID technology at affordable prices with low power consumption. entry controller cards offer users a straight-forward solution that includes essential RAID levels and RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 50 and JBOD mode uncomplicated configuration options. In addition, they are able to connect to SATA and SAS hard Hardware RAID solution disk drives and solid state drives, allowing for tiered storage that optimizes cost and performance. x8 PCI Express 2.0 host interface SAS drives are optimal when speed and reliability are of the utmost concern while SATA drives are Low-profile form factor appropriate when capacity and cost are more important. MegaRAID entry controllers cover the Supports up to 64 physical devices spectrum of tiered storage requirements for cost-sensitive applications that require robust data -Up - to 16 physical devices in a RAID configuration protection. Patrol read Consistency Check S.M.A.R.T. error detection Power management support MegaRAID Storage Manager Environmentally friendly with lowpower controller and cardboard packaging Key Advantages High performance with 6Gb/s data transfer rates Seamless Migration to MegaRAID Value and Feature Products A unique feature of the MegaRAID SATA+SAS entry line is the ability to seamlessly migrate from these low-cost RAID 5 controllers to the more full-featured MegaRAID product lines. Users can simply plug in a new controller to recognize and import the existing array without requiring any reconfiguration. Plus, a single management client provides a consistent user interface to manage any MegaRAID SATA and/or SAS arrays. 6Gb/s SAS Performance Advantage 6Gb/s SAS is designed for backward compatibility with 3Gb/s SAS as well as with 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s SATA hard drives. Regardless of the drive speed, 6Gb/s MegaRAID controllers will deliver significant PCI Express 2.0 host interface drives superior system performance performance improvements in both read and write applications as compared to their 3Gb/s MegaRAID Entry delivers robust RAID functionality with simplicity integrity using Decision Feedback Equalization, support for more sophisticated SAS topologies using (R) Flexible SATA+SAS array architecture optimizes cost Complete kit package includes necessary cables and brackets predecessors. Other new features of 6Gb/s MegaRAID SATA+SAS controllers include greater signal Expander Self-discovery/Self-configuration, and additional safeguards to enhance data protection. Intuitive RAID Management Utility The MegaRAID Management SuiteTM provides the essential software tools to efficiently manage MegaRAID products, whether deployed in an enterprise or small business. Avago offers a collection of applications and tools including a pre-boot setup utility and a full spectrum of online RAID management utilities.
