The EliteSTOR ES212X12HP is a complete 2U 12G SAS RAID solution for performance hungry RAID storage solution. Utilizing the latest 12G SAS expander technology, the ES212X12HP provides up to 48Gbps or 4800MBps of data bandwidth to fulfill the most demanding application. The ES212X12HP supports SATA or SAS 12Gbps hard drives or SSD and is backward compatible to 6Gbps SAS & SATA hard drives. By utilizing the latest SAS expander technology, the ES212X12HP supports up to 12 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 drives drives daisy-chained together. The system comes with a high performance RAID controller card, and the ES212X12HP is capable of delivering over in 3,000MBps read and write performance, doubling the existing 6G SAS expander bandwidth. Dedicated dual-core RAID engines provides RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 support with enterprises features and performances.
System status information is provided by the LED, including hard drives, power supply and cooling fan status, as well as RAID controller's event log and e-mail notification system. All necessary hardware comes standard including RAID controller card, mini-SAS cable, hard drives tray modules and built-in mounting rail. The ES212X12HP is an ideal storage expansion solution for servers or high performance video editing workstations. Support Windows (Vista or up, Server 2003 or up), Apple (OS X 10.4 or up), Linux and BSD. VMware ESX and Microsoft Hyper-V is also supported.
NEW DataBolt Technology, Maximize 6Gbps and 3Gbps hard drives and SSD in 12G performance
To allow 6Gbps and 3Gbps hard drives and SSDs to transition to newer 12G standard and performance, EliteSTOR SAS expander comes equipped with LSI DataBolt technology allow existing of 6G and 3G hard drives and SSD infrastructure to take advantage of 12Gbps speed. Only available in 12G SAS expander series, LSI DataBolt technology can aggregate bandwidth from 6Gbps and 3Gbps hard disk drives and SSD to a 12Gbps data stream by intelligently buffering data, resulting in over 50% increase. DataBolt technology is fully compatible with the 12Gbps SAS T10 specification.
Complete 12G solution with Bundled with 12G PCIe 3.0 x 8 RAID 6 RAID controller
The systems come with 12G PCIe 3.0 SAS RAID 6 controller. This complete solution provide end to end 12G solutions, from drives to enclosure to the RAID controller card. Bundled controller card equipped with dedicated dual-core 1.2GHz RAID processor and 2GB DDR-3 1866 memory, the overall performance generated over 3,000MBps, suitable for performance-hungry database application or 4K video editing stations.
Critical events such as RAID failure or cooling fan status is communicate via in-band cables (no extra management cable) and provide detail event log and e-mail notification. Other features includes online RAID capacity expansion, online RAID migration, remote or local web-based GUI interface and optional battery backup modules (BBM) for data integrity. Support all major operating systems, includes Windows (Windows Vista, 7, 8, Server 2003 and 2012), MAC (OS X 10.4 or above), or Linux and FreeBSD. Also support in virtual environment including VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V. Thunderbolt 1 or Thunderbolt 2 is supported via Thunderbolt to PCIe conversion box.
