Marketing Information:

Help protect data and improve performance on your entry xSeries server or advanced workstation by using this low-cost RAID Controller option. It delivers many basic RAID functions similar to that of higher cost SCSI RAID controllers, but at a lower cost. This controller, combined with low-cost ATA hard disk drives (HDDs), creates an economical, internal RAID storage subsystem for select xSeries servers and IntelliStation workstations. This two-channel, half-length PCI bus mastering controller supports ATA/133, ATA/100 and ATA/66 HDDs using popular RAID levels such as RAID striping (RAID-0) helps improve performance by using an array of drives set up as one virtual drive; mirroring (RAID-1) provides fault-tolerance for high availablity and data protection; and mirroring with striping (RAID-10). In the event of a failed drive in the array, this RAID controller option is designed to rebuild data automatically in the background to a replacement drive. This minimizes disruption to network clients and keeps your business running smoothly. The ATA 133 RAID Controller is easy to install and set up. It contains simple configuration utilities that allow you to tailor your RAID subsystem to support up to four HDDs per controller and two HDDs per channel; auto rebuild for data protection; boot from the RAID-configured array; and array configuration and monitoring software.
