ThinkCP™ Fire-n-Ice IceCube6 Desktop RAID System
Highlights The IceCube6 RAID system offers a truly innovative eSATA(3.0Gbps)/USB2.0 solution for use with your PC and Mac workstation. Designed and leveraged with Think existing high performance solution, this RAID system delivers high-capacity performance at the best of cost/performance value. With RAID system technology, it allows one HDD failure without impact on the existing data and failed drive rebuild is transparent to the host. The Mac pro internal hard drive backplane mounting system is a very nice feature support up to four internal 3.5” SATA connector. Users simply add internal extension cable from those empty backplane to IceCube6-3 re-driver board to have eSATA connector for IceCube6. Unparalleled Performance IceCube6 RAID system unleashes the power of 3.0Gbps performance and NCQ support on the eSATA host port. The eSATA port delivers in excess of 210MB/s sustained RAID 5 reads and over 176MB/s RAID 5 sequential writes. The result is superior overall performance compared to other 4 bay eSATA solution. High transfer rates make IceCube6 RAID system well suited for audio/video application, especially the rapidly growing demand from the Mac Video Editing markets. With the target mode multiplier emulation, both eSATA and USB2.0 host channel (with port multiplier function) can support multiple volumes (up to 4). Unsurpassed Data Availability The IceCube6 RAID system provides RAID levels 0, 1, 10, 3, 5, Single Disk or JBOD RAID configurations. Its high data availability and protection derives from the following capabilities: Online RAID Capacity Expansion, Array Roaming, Online RAID Level / Stripe Size Migration, Global Online Spare, Automatic Drive Failure Detection, Automatic Failed Drive Rebuilding, Disk Hot Swap, Online Background Rebuilding, Instant Availability/Background Initialization, Auto Reassign Sector and Redundant Flash Image. Think greater than Two TB support allows for very large volume set application in 64-bit environment such as data-mining and managing large databases. Easy RAID Management Manual configuration and monitoring can be done through the LCD Control Panel, RS-232 and LAN port. The LCD Hot-Key supports one-step easy RAID configuration to simplify the firstly setup of IceCube6 RAID system. It’s API library supports customer to write its own monitor utility. The hardware monitor can monitor system voltage, temperature and fan. Enclosure management features include fault indicators and status LEDs, event notification and user configurable audio alarms via eSATA in-band signal. |
