Rackmount SATA Hardware RAID Arrays with Port Multiplier

This sleek 1U rack mount enclosure with built in hardware RAID controller houses five (5) high capacity SATA II disks and connects via a single eSATA cable.  
 
The perfect solution for large storage libraries, digital video & digital audio files and backups...all application that needs fast, reliable, and easy to manage storage!  Needing huge storage capacity in a small space?  Using four of the enclosures, in only a 4U rack mount space you can mount TWENTY (20) SATA drives! 

Built-in hardware RAID controller supports:

• RAID 0 (Striping) — allows the enclosure to performance stripe the drives, to provide maximum throughput to the direct attached PC/Server.
• RAID 1 — allows the enclosure to automatically copy primary hard drive without any CPU loading.
• RAID 3 (Byte-level data striping with dedicated parity drive) — good choice in applications where large files comprise all of the workload.
• RAID 5 (Striping with Parity) — provides the perfect balance between very high performance and data integrity.
• RAID 10 (Mirrored Stripe) — provides 100% data redundancy plus offers increased performance by striping across 2 disks.
• JBOD or Port Multiplier* — allows the direct attached PC/Server to see the drives in the enclosure as just a bunch of drives.
