|
The AccuRAID AR424X12R Series is a 4U redundant controller rack-mountable RAID solution designed for data centers, file servers, backup, audio/video streaming, and digital video recording. With redundant components including a controller, cooling fan and power supply, the AR424X12R provides a high availability storage solution in mission critical applications. It is capable of install over 200+ 8TB HDD drives with additional AS424X12R JBOD storage expansion units, and is the perfect solution for applications requiring large storage spaces. . With an industry proven dual channel 12G SAS host interface, the AR424X12R provids high performance 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 AR424X12R is built with Web or RS232 management Interfaces along with SMTP manager monitioring all system events. The AR424X12R is an easy to use building block for a large storage systems, and is guaranteed to achieve the most cost-effective performance and data protection.
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.
