Chapter 1 Product Overview

1.1 Features

RAC 141 Subsystem is a high-performance RAID subsystem built

around EnhanceRAID controller with the features listed below:

•Single channel performance is over 240MB/sec

•Snapshot-on-the-box without relying on host software

•SATA II drive interface (Backward-compatible)

•Configurable N-way mirror for high data protection

•On-line volume expansion with no system down-time

•Extensible APIs for host server integration

When properly configured, RAC 141 provides non-stop data storage

service with a high degree of fault tolerance through the use of RAID technology

and advanced array management features.

RAC 141 connects to the host system through an U320 SCSI interface

for optimized performance in speed. It can be configured to any RAID level to

provide the most reliable data protection and fastest data transfer rates as

required by user applications.

RAC 141 is designed with a new level of polynomial technology to

implement the RAID 6 function. RAID 6 arrays allow up to two simultaneous HDD

failures without impact on the existing data, making the RAC 141 the

most reliable RAID system.

RAC 141 has SNAPSHOT feature that can perform an online speedy

logical data backup on the controller level without affecting the performance of

the server host.

RAC 141 offers array migration and expansion technology to give users

the flexibility to change RAID levels and increase array capacity for increased

performance or data security to meet the changing demands of applications.

RAC 141 is the most cost-effective disk array subsystem with

completely integrated high-performance and data-protection capabilities that

meet or exceed the highest industry standards.

Caution

•Before starting any type of hardware installation, please ensure that all

power switches have been turned off and all power cords have

been disconnected to prevent personal injury and damage to the

hardware.

To avoid overheating, RAC 141 should be operated in a well-

ventilated area and in such a way that sufficient airflow is

maintained across the controller chips.

•Static electricity can damage electronic components. To guard against

such damage:

1. Work in a static-free environment

2. Wear a grounded anti-static wrist strap

3. Store uninstalled components in anti-static bags

4. Handle PCBs by their edges and avoid touching chips and

connectors.

•Environmental requirements:

Temperature: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)

Humidity: 5% to 95%, non-condensing
