UltraStor™ Versatility |
Featuring
two Ultra320 SCSI channels (DAS), the RS16 provides versatility
critical to a company's IT infrastructure. ULTRASTOR™ RS16 is powered
by a cutting edge 64-bit RAID engine which maximizes disk performance
allowing for a broader range of storage possibilities. Built-in
enterprise feature such as Snapshot makes the new ULTRASTOR™ RS16 an ideal solution for 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 protected
storage to an existing IT infrastructure, regardless of your operating
system or hardware. The ULTRASTOR™ series is designed to easily
integrate into elaborate SAN fabrics or point-to-point centralized
storage. ULTRASTOR™ RS16 truly offers a flexible and powerful solution
that will increase your capacity, productivity and add unprecedented
data protection. |
| |
Powerful Storage Management |
 The new RS16 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 RS16. |

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." |
