Adaptec RAID 31605
High-performance and most advanced PCIe connectivity and data protection for
SATA and SAS disk drives
16-port Unified Serial PCI Express (PCIe) controller supporting RAID 0, 1, 1E,
5, 5EE, 6, 10, 50, 60, Copyback Hot Spare, and optional Snapshot Backup for
mid-range to enterprise servers and workstations
Part Number: 2252700-R
Product description
Choose an Adaptec Unified Serial™ controller to leverage cost-effective,
high-capacity Serial ATA (SATA) disk drives or high-performance Serial Attached
SCSI (SAS) drives, or both, in a single storage system. With Adaptec Unified
Serial controllers, you can scale up to 60TB (using 500GB drives) and increase
performance for SATA and SAS storage.
Attach directly to SATA and SAS midplanes with up to 16 disk drives or increase
capacity using SAS expanders. With an x8 lane, 800 MHz processing power and
256MB of memory, your large capacity solutions will maximize performance and
scalability.
The Adaptec RAID 31605 is a 16-port controller that supports SATA and SAS drives
and next-generation PCIe connectivity. It features Adaptec RAID Code (ARC) with
RAID levels 0, 1, 1E, 5, 5EE, 6, 10, 50, 60, JBOD, as well as Copyback Hot Spare
and optional Snapshot Backup.
The card has 256MB of DDR2 memory and a battery unit is optional. Adaptec
Storage Manager™ provides one-view, centralized management for all Adaptec RAID
controllers.
