The EliteSTOR ES424X12P is a latest 4U SAS 12G JBOD rackmount with newer modular design. Utilizing the latest 12G SAS expander technology, the ES424X12P provides up to 48Gb/s or 4800MB/s of data bandwidth to fulfill the most demanding application. Build-in support for both 2.5" and 3.5" form factors, the ES424X12P supports SATA or SAS 12Gb/s hard drives or SSD and is backward compatible to 6Gb/s SAS interface. By utilizing the latest SAS expander technology, the ES424X12P supports up to 24 SAS or SATA drives using only one HD mini-SAS (SFF-8644) cable. A built-in SAS expansion port enables the system to connect up to 256 HDD drives daisy-chained together. The ES424X12P is capable of delivering over in 3,000MB/s in read and write performance with RAID controller, doubling the existing 6G SAS expander bandwidth. System status information is provided by the front LCD display, and information includes hard drives, power supply and cooling fan status. All necessary hardware comes standard including mini-SAS HD cable, hard drives tray modules and mounting rail. The ES424X12P is an ideal storage expansion solution for servers or high performance video editing workstations.
*NEW* DataBolt™ Technology, Maximize 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s hard drives and SSD in 12G performance To allow 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s hard drives and SSD transit to newer 12G standard and performance, EliteSTOR SAS expander equipped with LSI DataBolt™ technology allow existing of 6G and 3G hard drives and SSD infrastructure to take advantage of 12Gb/s speed. Only available in 12G SAS expander series, LSI DataBolt™ technology can aggregate bandwidth from 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s hard disk drives and SSD to a 12Gb/s data stream by intelligently buffering data, resulting in over 50% increase. DataBolt™ technology is fully compatible with the 12Gb/s SAS T10 specification. 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.

- *New* Modularized Components - Cooling fan and Redundant Power Supply are fully modularized
- *New* LCD Display - Critical information are now displayed on the front LCD
- *New* 2.5" and 3.5" Tray Modules - New tray modules support both 2.5" SSDs or 3.5" hard drives without additional adapters
- 12Gb/s SAS Expander Technology - Connect 24 SAS or SATA drives with only one single SFF-8644 to 8644 Mini-SAS HD cable to HBA (Host Bus Adapter) or RAID controller.
- DataBolt™ technology - Aggregate bandwidth from 6Gb/s and 3Gb/s hard disk drives and SSD to a 12Gb/s data stream by intelligently buffering data, result in over 50% increase.
- Superior Performance - With support of SATA 12Gb/s or SAS 12Gb/s hard drives and 48Gb/s of data bandwidth, performance can reach over 3,000MB/s in read and write (tested with 12G SAS RAID controller card).
- Staggering Spin-Up - Built-in staggering spin-up for hard drives during power up. Thus, extending the life / duty cycle of the hard drives and power supply.
- Support Industry Standard SGPIO - Serial General Purpose Input / Output (SGPIO) is utilized to provide the hard drives health & enclosure real-time information via the mini-SAS HD connection cable to the HBA (host Bus Adapter) or RAID card without additional serial cable.
- Scalability - Supports up to 256 drives daisy-chained together for capacity expansion via SAS expander.
- Multi-purposes - Supports both SAS (Serial SCSI) and SATA hard drives to meet the requirements of different applications with different price/performance characteristics. Cost-effective SATA drives could be used for capacity orientated storage such as disk-to-disk backup, data-archiving, and digital video editing. Enterprise level SAS drives could be employed for I/O intensive applications such as transactional databases.
- Redundant Power Supply - hot-swappable, redundant power is useful for protection against power failure. Power supply status can be easily monitored by the status LED and audible alarm alert.
- All hardware are included - HD Mini-SAS cable, cooling fan, tray modules and build-in mounting rail are included. By connecting to a SAS controller and hard drives will instantly increase the storage space.
- Wide Range RAID Adapters Support - Compatible with Areca ARC-1883X, Broadcom SAS MegaRAID, Intel, Dell, HP, PMC Adaptec and other industry standard 12G SAS RAID card.
