| UltraStor™ Versatility |
Featuring
Quad GbE ports (iSCSI), the RS16 IP-4 provides versatility critical to a company's IT infrastructure.
UltraStor™ RS16 IP-4 is powered by a cutting edge 64-bit RAID engine,
up to 2GB cache, and 3.0 Gbp/s disks, which maximizes disk performance
(300MB/s via four iSCSI GbE ports) allowing for a broader range of storage
possibilities. Built-in enterprise feature such as N-Way Mirror and Snapshot, providing point-in-time recovery that safeguard accidental
deletion, makes the new UltraStor™ RS16 IP-4 an ideal solution for
server storage such as Microsoft Exchange & SQL Server, as well
as professional storage applications such as Disk-to-Disk backup,
database pools, image acquisition, near line storage, data centers,
media & asset management libraries and shared SAN networks.
Dynamic on-line RAID expansion allows additional capacity to be
added without total system downtime, increasing your department's
productivity. |

| Appliance-based Storage |
ULTRASTOR™ is a host independent storage appliance which provides a transparent and driverless method of adding additional RAID (0, 1, 3, 5, 6) protected storage to an existing IT infrastructure, regardless of your operating system or hardware. The ULTRASTOR™ RS16 IP-4 supports Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) , is designed to easily integrate into elaborate SAN fabrics or point-to-point centralized storage. ULTRASTOR™ RS16 IP-4 truly offers a flexible and powerful solution that will increase your capacity, productivity and add unprecedented data protection. |
| |
| Powerful Storage Management |
 The new RS16 IP-4 offers multiple management options to match your
workflow, and can be completely auto configured in minutes using
the convenient rear LCD control panel, and monitored or reconfigured
through a remote connection. A comprehensive menu screen facilitates
the setup process and lets users reconfigure the system as storage
needs change. An RS232 interface gives users access to advanced
features such as multiple array settings, iSCSI parameters (connection
mode, ID, LUN mapping, etc.) SNMP features and security options.
A network interface is available for remote web browser based
management and includes the essential tools required to manage
and monitor your RS16IP. |

| Multi-Path I/O |
Enhance Technology UltraStor™ RS Series Enterprise IntelliRAID Now Supports Microsof  t Multipath I/O (MPIO) that integrates tightly with the Microsoft Windows® family of products and their architectures. High reliance on the Internet and e-commerce means that organizations are increasingly requiring that their data be available 24x7, year round. Multipathing, the ability of asystem to use more than one read/write path to a storage device, is a high availability solution that provides fault tolerance against single-point-of failure in hardware components. Multipathing can also provide load balancing of I/O traffic, thereby improving system and application performance. |

| Power & Cooling |
ULTRASTOR™ keeps your workloads and critical applications running 24x7 without hardware failure interruption through the deployment of robotic power and cooling management, specifically its redundant hot-swappable power supplies (2) and fans (2). As described by the testing engineer from hard drive manufacturer Western Digital Corporation's interoperability lab ". This system can compete side by side with some of the best systems that we have tested in our lab to date." |
