Infortrend EonStor F12F-G2A2

Infortrend EonStor F12F-G2A2 ... highly acclaimed fibre-to-fibre RAID controllers with a wide range of 12 hot-swappable, high-performance, industry-standard FC-2G drives in a single, uniquely designed, highly accessible storage enclosure that is able to endure the extreme physical stresses placed on storage subsystems today. Featuring two FC-2G host channels the embedded FC-2G controller ensures superior performance, extreme reliability and exceptional data availability in today's most data-intensive storage environments. Two FC-2G host channels guarantee high levels of data availability and security. Two additional FC-2G expansion channels provide scalability options enabling users to increase the overall capacity of the storage network.

Equipped with three fully redundant, hot-swappable cooling fan modules and two fully redundant, hot-swappable power supply units, the uniquely designed 19-inch rack mountable enclosure has been customized to perform in the most rigorous storage environments where data availability is an imperative. Running on architecture trusted by the most demanding applications, the subsystem is capable of a high level of performance. Its 64-bit separate-bus backbone is built around the dedicated XOR engines running at twice the data bus speed. The calculation of parity and distribution of data can be optimized with the free association between individual logical arrays and different optimization modes.

Featuring a 64-bit 133 MHz memory bus, the unparalleled bandwidth makes the subsystem's high data throughput more than sufficient for small-to-medium sized servers or workstations. Data can be distributed at the burst rate up to 1066MB/sec. The dual independent PCI bus design virtually eliminates all imminent bottlenecks on IO traffic, providing sufficient throughput for a wide range of applications on fibre-based PCs, single-user workstations, NT, Linux, or UNIX-based servers. These applications include disk-to-disk backup, Video on Demand, CCTV, and stream editing.
