Overview

The AccuRAID AR212S is a 2U rack-mountable RAID solution designed for file servers, data backup, audio/video streaming, and digital video recording. With capacity of up to 24TB, this array is prefect for any application that requires a high capacity storage solution. With an industry proven Dual SCSI Ultra320 host interface and cutting edge SATA hard drive technology, the AR212S is guaranteed to achieve the most cost-effective performance and data protection. The 12 hot-swappable 3.5” trays for Serial-ATA drives allow quick replacement and simple trouble-shooting of the storage unit. The AR212S RAID subsystem could also be easily scaled to RAID levels 0, 1, 0+1, 3, 5, 6 or JBOD configurations. Featuring durable, heavy duty steel housing and an user-friendly LCD panel , the AR212S meets the most intensive data application demands.

Features

Architecture
