AccuRAID AR316X6
|
The AccuRAID AR316X6 Series is a 3U rack-mountable RAID solution designed for file servers, backup, audio/video streaming, and digital video recording. It is capable of up to 336TB of capacity with additional AS316X6S JBOD storage expansion units, and is the perfect solution for applications requiring large storage spaces. With an industry proven Dual Channel 6G SAS host interface, the AR316X6 provides 6G SAS bandwidth and cutting edge SAS and SATA hard drive technology. The array supports RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 3, 5, 6, 30, 50, 60 and JBOD modes. Featuring durable, heavy duty steel housing and a user-friendly LCD panel, the AR316X6 is built with Web or RS232 management Interfaces along with SMTP manager monitoring all system events. The AR316X6 is an easy to use building block for large storage systems, and is guaranteed to achieve the most cost-effective performance and data protection. The AR316X6 comes with modular RAID controller, redundant power supply and redundant cooling fans. Built-in redundant controller ready backplane allows non-destructive redundancy controller upgrade path without purchasing a brand new hardware.
Note: Sans Digital recommends the use of enterprise hard drives when in use with any RAID controller applications. Standard desktop or green desktop drive may not be supported and may compromise RAID system stability and performance.
