XJ100 SAS/SATA JBOD Series |
|
|
Today’s high
performance storage system is mostly designed with a
heavy rackmount enclosure with costly Fibre Channel
or SCSI interface. With lighter, cost effective, and
convenient enclosures in demand, AIC introduces this
small footprint storage box with unprecedented
1200MB/s SAS Link.
Users can choose high performance Serial Attached
SCSI drives as well as low cost SATA drives. For its
low cost and small size, XJ 100 SAS JBOD’s
performance proves users’ expectations. It is the
ideal solution for HD Video storage and many other
desktop storage applications you can imagine. |
|
High Performance |
The
maximum performance per host connection is
1200MB/sec, which is higher than a single 4G or even
8G Fibre Channel connection. The performance of the
bus is achieved by combining four SAS channels with
each supporting 3Gbps full duplex speed. Together
with a high-speed SAS HBA or SAS RAID controller
card in the host server, this storage enclosure can
deliver an unprecedented performance. Thanks to the
high performance SAS throughput, you can play
multiple High Definition Video clips and edit them
because storage is no longer the bottleneck of your
application. |
SAS and SATA Compatibility |
This enclosure is designed specifically for
individuals who are looking for high
performance/reliability and high capacity/low cost
solutions. Customer can choose to install Serial
Attached SCSI 3G or SATA 3G/1.5G drives mixed in the
same box. |
Large Storage Capacity and Scalability |
For cost and capacity considerations, XJ100 SAS
JBOD supports 5 x 3.5” SATA drives, which endorses
up to 5TB of RAID 5 storage. The high performance
SAS expander inside the box, provides an expansion
port allowing this JBOD to be cascaded to another
for more capacity. Up to 120 drives can be cascaded
from a single SAS initiator. |
Easy Maintenance and Management |
All of AIC’s SAS Enclosures are cable-less with
hot-swappable disk carriers. It is easy for
technicians or users to configure or maintain. This
system supports SES (SCSI Enclosure Service) for
status monitoring and in-band firmware update. Also,
a software independent serial port can be used for
firmware update and more sophisticated status check.
Only one cable is needed for connection. |
