TowerRAID TR5M6G
The TowerRAID TR5M6G is the world's first 6G-port multiplier storage, bundled with 6G PCIe 2.0 x4 RAID 5 controller. It's a compact RAID tower utilizing the latest SATA III port multiplier technology, where one single eSATA cable connects to five 6Gbps SATA hard drives. Bundled with a high performance RAID controller card RR642, its RAID 5 performance is capable of reaching over 300Mbps.
Online expansion is included in the controller card so the RAID can be expanded without the need to recreate storage space or erase existing data. Advanced monitoring functions include real time hard drives health status, remote RAID management, and e-mail notification for critical events. Designed with easy installation in mind, the trayless TR5M6G allows instant setup by simply inserting the hard drives after opening the protective ventilating cover.
The included dual-port eSATA 6Gbps PCIe 2.0 x4 RAID controller card allows the connection of up to two TR5M6G units (up to 10 hard drives) using only two cables, while all drives can be configured into a single or multiple RAID arrays, providing over 700Mbps in performance with 10 drives.
