The RAID concept (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) refers to several independent hard disks which form a large logical drive when switched together. Redundancy information is calculated from several data blocks (except for RAID 0) and saved distributed to the individual hard disks. Your operating system no longer accesses the individual hard disks, but the array. The actual objective of the RAID concept is to increase availability and prevent downtimes in the event of a hard disk failure. However, the theoretical security of the RAID concept is only as good as the RAID controller used. Benefit from the Fujitsu RAID controllers where technology, experience and practical implementation all ensure the security that your company needs in the event of an emergency. PRAID EP440i TFM/ EP440i TFM SafeStore The Fujitsu RAID Controller PRAID EP440i TFM with 4GB cache and 12Gbit/s SAS ports x (8) improves performance for storage intensive workloads such as databases and sets new speed and data security standards for internal storage drives. The RAID stack is based on the LSI MegaRAID® and offers high data throughput, a comprehensive fault tolerance function and user-friendly management options. Moreover, the Controller management is integrated seamlessly into the Fujitsu server management concept. All controller functions are supported by the Fujitsu ServerView RAID Manager. The PRAID EP440i TFM is designed for backward compatibility with 3Gbit/s SAS as well as with 6Gbit/s and 3Gbit/s SATA hard drives. Regardless of the drive speed, it delivers significant performance improvements in both read and write applications. SafeStore is supported by different controller- PRAID EP440i TFM SafeStore. MegaRAID® SafeStore software helps manage self-encrypting drives attached to RAID controller cards for higher levels of security. An authentication key is required to lock a drive so that its contents remain safely beyond the reach of hackers and thieves and MegaRAID® SafeStore software helps to create and locally manage those authentication keys.The RAID controller supports all of the important RAID levels including RAID 6 and 60. The optional flash battery backup (FBU) combined with TFM module ensures the integrity of the data stored in the cache on the RAID controller in case of a power outage. In this event, the data will be copied to a non-volatile flash memory (TFM). The FBU provides a low-priced alternative to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and, when compared to battery backup up units (BBU), enables a long-term, secure store of data and better serviceability. The TFM module is bundled with the controller, the FBU is optional. Important information for later upgrade from std. SAS controller: Specific cable sets per system are available as L-parts. For upgrade from std. SAS controller see manual. Orders ex factory are configured with appropriate cables. |
