RAID Level Modes:
- FAST or Data Striping (RAID 0) — allows the enclosure to performance stripe the drives, to provide maximum throughput to the direct attached PC/Server.
- SAFE or Data Mirroring (RAID 1) — allows the enclosure to automatically copy primary hard drive without any CPU
loading*. The enclosure provides automatic rebuild on device replacement and auto-failover, to eliminate any workflow interruptions.
- SAFE & FAST or Data Striping and Mirroring (RAID 10) — allows the
enclosure to improve data availability beyond RAID 5 or RAID 6 with large SATA drives, due to rebuild vulnerability.
- SAFE & BIG Mode or Drive Spanning and Mirroring — allows for large capacity with protection.
- BIG or Drive Spanning — allows the enclosure to make any two drives (same or different sizes) appear as one large drive to the host, for extra capacity (also called concatenation).
- JBOD or Port Multiplier — this allows the direct attached PC/Server to see
the drives in the enclosure as just a bunch of drives.
Data Protection Features:
-
Automatic-Mirroring (RAID 1 mode)*
-
Self-healing storage (Auto-Rebuild/Hot Spare)*
-
No down time (Automatic-Failover)*
-
Less than 1% Host CPU loading during rebuild*
-
Fast rebuild of 100GB/hour
-
Easy configuration using GUI applet
-
Drive Performance Aggregation (RAID 0)
*SAFE or RAID 1 modes require that the Silicon Image daemon/agent application to be running for automatic rebuild policy operation.
