distributors of IT peripherals, networking & components in India,
Singapore, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal, today
announced that Adaptec has expanded it’s controller family with new two port
external SATA solution for PCI express interface for ease of Use, Maximum
Flexibility, and improved data protection. The products will be available
through Cyberstar Infocom (P) Limited.
The
latest addition to Adaptec's family of industry leading RAID controllers, the
Adaptec 1225SA provides a wide range of superior features designed specifically
for small office and home office (
The
new Adaptec 1225SA RAID controller installs in any available PCIe slot, and
offers two external SATA ports with speeds up to 3 gigabits per second. The
card is equipped with the intuitive Adaptec Storage Manager(TM) (ASM) software
for ease of use and improved management, and offers RAID levels 0, 1, JBOD and
eSATA hot-swap compatibility, enabling users to easily move drives or volumes
from one system to another, delivering maximum flexibility and superior data
protection.
Serial
ATA (SATA) was designed as an internal interface technology, offering improved
performance and new features for disk and tape drives inside the PC system.
Now, the same performance and features are available for storage needs outside
the PC, without relying on USB or 1394 connectivity, via eSATA technology.
Emerging applications for eSATA external storage include new SATA features such
as a port multiplier support, which allows a single host connection to access
multiple disk drives, providing an easy method for adding terabytes of storage
capacity to a host system with an external SATA connection. The Adaptec 1225SA
allows this capacity to be shared by multiple users, partitioned into different
configurations and leveraged to provide automatic backups of other devices on
the network.
Over
the period of 25 years, Adaptec is efficiently delivering storage and I/O
solutions and leveraging the industry's most comprehensive compatibility test
lab. Adaptec has ensured that the Adaptec 1225SA RAID controller is compatible
and fully supported by the majority of third-party systems and devices,
including major external SATA (eSATA) disk drives and tape drives, on the
market today.
As
a part of its marketing strategy, Cyberstar will conduct focused dealer end
customer training programs on advantages of implementing new two port External
SATA solutions into their unified storage architectures. Special pricing
schemes and dealer promotions have also been drawn as a part of this aggressive
program.
