NORCO DS-500B external SATA (eSATA) Storage Array RAID Subsystem with built-in Port Multiplier and eSATA host interface, supports both 1.5 Gb/s and 3Gb/s Serial ATA transfer rates. Connected to a eSATA PCI-X/PCI card, this subsystem gives your more than 10 times the data transfer speed of an average Network-attached storage (NAS) and massive hard drive space capability. It supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 0+1, JBOD functions, providing a protected, easy to manage, cost effective storage solution.
Features:
- RAID 0, 1, 0+1 and 5 to protect data and ensure accessibility; Self-healing storage with auto-rebuild and hot spare functions
- Over 10 times faster average NAS system; Supports High Definition video stream (RAID0 mode); Sustained data transfer throughput up to 230 Mbytes/sec*
- Supports five SATA/SATA II hard drives (not included);
- Hot-swappable drive trays to enable adding hard drive and capacity as needed; Multi-port host adapter to connect and manage multiple external storage arrays
- Hard drive temperature monitoring and alarm system; Five hot-swappable SATA hard drive trays with special designed power-off and lock mechanism to take offsite as a safe backup
- Plug and play; Easy to setup and manage; Host controller included
- Operating system independent, supports Windows, Linux, MAC
* The peak DS-500B data transfer rate descried is based on a five SATA II drive setup in a RAID 0 configuration; Average NAS system data transfer speed is based on 20Mbytes/sec.
