Web-based GUI

Embedded CGI-based GUI (graphic user interface) management interface can be accessed through a web browser. The GUI allows users to easily setup RAID arrays, lun mapping, etc. and also provides remote monitoring of drive health, fan, and power supplies.


RAID 6

RAID 6 improves over the industry standard RAID 5 by adding another parity disk which gives greater reliability and data protection.


RAID TP

The innovative RAID TP improves reliability even further than RAID 6 by creating an additional parity disk, for a total of three parity disks. RAID TP surpasses the reliability of RAID 5 and RAID 6 and can allow up to three disk failure while still maintaining access to data.


Support for greater than 2TB slice and LUN

Two firmware options are available to surpass the 2 terabyte limitation; 16byte CDB and variable sector size. With either of these functions enabled, users are able to create slices and map LUNs greater than 2TB to their respective host channels. See support documentation for compatibility or contact technical support for more information.


BBU

An optional BBU can be included in the RAID system to ensure data integrity in the event of a power outage. The BBU, or battery backup unit, will provide power to the on-board cache of the RAID controller in the event of a power outage. This will allow any data that is still stored on the cache to be saved until power is restored. Once power is restored, the RAID controller will flush the cache to drives.
