MacRAID™
435 Series - 6 Bay Rack Mount, 2U High, Ultra 160 SCSI
to EIDE, Intel i80303® RN 64 Bit RISC based Ultra-thin RAID Storage
Solution. Available from 1.5 TB - 2.4 TB.
MacRAID™
storage solutions are designed specifically to fit anywhere from the
smaller workgroup and single workstation all the way up to the performance
driven large server environment. These ultra reliable, high performance
RAID sub-systems are available at a significantly reduced cost due
to their use of inexpensive Ultra DMA drives. With a capacity of up
to 2.4 TB these Ultra-160-SCSI devices suit a highly versatile range
of applications.
By connecting
to a host server via a SCSI connector and utilizing an onboard microprocessor,
the MacRAID™ 420/435 series Disk Arrays gives your data the security
and performance of hardware RAID, yet the cost effectiveness of IDE
RAID.
Today's Ultra
DMA technology has increased the burst transfer rate to 100 MB/sec.,
providing the highest levels of disk throughput and enhancing data
integrity as well. The Ultra DMA drives even outperform SCSI drives
at a fraction of the cost. Ask yourself, "Why Pay More To Get
The Same?"
Extreme
User Friendliness is our advantage.
As opposed to
conventional Disk Arrays that usually require experienced specialists
to solve complicated and time consuming setup procedures the MacRAID™
420/435 series features a revolutionary new concept:
Innovative
Plug and Play RAID
As compared to
the conventional Disk Array’s long and tedious setup procedures,
the MacRAID™ 420/435 series can be ready to go in just a few
hours, by using the simple, step by step, built-in setup program.
Hooking up the MacRAID™ 420/435 series to your server is simple
and painless.
Powerful
Performance Without Compromise
The MacRAID™
420/435 series is designed to enhance your capability and productivity
by offering advanced performance and state-of-the-art features in
a high quality, modular and compact Disk Array sub-system, that is
also one of the fastest on the market. Just check out some of its
unique features (for technical specifications please click on the
links on the bottom of the page):
- Independent
Fault Isolation:
Each hard drive is on a separate data channel – if a drive
fails, it won’t affect or corrupt data on another drive.
Allows the disk
array to continue functioning, even when one* of the hard disks
has failed.
(*Two disks can fail simultaneously with no data loss if hot-spare
function is enabled)
- Auto Rebuild:
When a replacement disk has been installed, the MacRAID™ 420/435
series provides automatic data rebuild without the need for any
commands or functions to be keyed in. (Transparent to Host)
- Operating
Status:
A LCD status panel displays a comprehensive readout of the operating
status and the HDD LED indicators on each hard disk tray display
the status of the individual hard disk.
- Hot Spare
Feature:
A hard disk can be used as a hot stand-by disk. When a hard disk
error occurs on one of the RAID drives, this on-line hot spare disk
will automatically replace the failed disk drive.
- Hot Swap
Feature:
You can remove and install the hot swap parts without interrupting
data access while the MacRAID™ 420/435 series is on. These
hot swap parts include the hard disks, redundant power supply units
and cooling fans.
- Ultra High
Speed:
Interface support for Fast/Wide/Ultra Wide/Ultra-2-Wide/Ultra 160
SCSI host channel (Asynchronous/Synchronous), up to 160 MB/sec.
data transfer rate.
- Power Supply:
Redundant and load sharing dual power supplies.
(All models except the MacRAID™
285 series)
- Operating
Systems:
Operating system independent and transparent. Certified for Mac.
Ready to use with Mac using a hard disk utility for mounting.
- Hard Disk
Compatibility:
Compatible with most ULTRA DMA drives with capacities ranging from
10 GB to 160 GB. Certified for IBM, Seagate, Maxtor, Quantum, Western
Digital and Fujitsu.
- Daisy Chaining:
MacRAID™ 420/435 series can be daisy chained, connecting multiple
units for multiple terabytes of storage space.
