Cyberstar has announced that Adaptec has expanded it's controller family with new two port external SATA solution for PCI express interface for ease of Use, Maximum Flexibility, and improved data protection. The products will be available through Cyberstar.
The latest addition to Adaptec's family of industry leading RAID controllers, the Adaptec 1225SA provides a wide range of superior features designed specifically for small office and home office ( SOHO ) networks relying on external direct attached storage (DAS) for professional workstations and entry servers.
The new Adaptec 1225SA RAID controller installs in any available PCIe slot, and offers two external SATA ports with speeds up to 3 gigabits per second. The card is equipped with the intuitive Adaptec Storage Manager(TM) (ASM) software for ease of use and improved management, and offers RAID levels 0, 1, JBOD and eSATA hot-swap compatibility, enabling users to easily move drives or volumes from one system to another, delivering maximum flexibility and superior data protection.
Serial ATA (SATA) was designed as an internal interface technology, offering improved performance and new features for disk and tape drives inside the PC system. Now, the same performance and features are available for storage needs outside the PC, without relying on USB or 1394 connectivity, via eSATA technology. Emerging applications for eSATA external storage include new SATA features such as a port multiplier support, which allows a single host connection to access multiple disk drives, providing an easy method for adding terabytes of storage capacity to a host system with an external SATA connection. The Adaptec 1225SA allows this capacity to be shared by multiple users, partitioned into different configurations and leveraged to provide automatic backups of other devices on the network.
Over the period of 25 years, Adaptec is efficiently delivering storage and I/O solutions and leveraging the industry's most comprehensive compatibility test lab. Adaptec has ensured that the Adaptec 1225SA RAID controller is compatible and fully supported by the majority of third-party systems and devices, including major external SATA (eSATA) disk drives and tape drives, on the market today.
As a part of its marketing strategy, Cyberstar will conduct focused dealer end customer training programs on advantages of implementing new two port External SATA solutions into their unified storage architectures. Special pricing schemes and dealer promotions have also been drawn as a part of this aggressive program.
” We are always in the process of enhancing our product offerings to customers to satisfy their complete IT requirements”, says Mr. Raj Rathi, the Founder & CEO of Cyberstar Infocom. “We are very bullish on the prospects of Adaptec 1225SA that offers superior performance external storage connectivity and helps the consumers to enjoy the fastest transfer rates”, he further adds.
