Introduction 

 
EBOX-R5 is one to Five SATA Port Multiplier RAID Controller 
with LCD Module. It is designed to provide SATA port expansion, 
data protection and performance aggregation at various 
applications. 
 
EBOX-R5 uses market-proven Multi-port Serial ATA PHY 
technology and proprietary storage processor to provide very 
high efficient SATA RAID operation. With an easy configuration 
scheme, the device can be a pure port multiplier which provides 
SATA port expansion just like a SATA Hub, or hard-drive 
performance booster which provides a high performance device 
seen by host controller or hard-drive data protector which 
automatically backup data to prevent data loss from hard-drive 
damage. EBOX-R5 also has advance mode to provide both 
benefit of performance boost and data protection. 
 
EBOX-R5 is a self-contained storage processor chip which 
completely frees up the main CPU loading and the SATA ports 
comply with eSATA specification, making it suitable for use in 
both internal system and external storage applications.
