A.1.1 Key Features of the ICP Controllers of the GDT RS and RZ Series
ƒ
64 Bit Hardware RAID Controllers with RAID 0/1, or RAID 0/1/4/5/10 Array Drives at con-
troller level, completely independent of the computer system and the operating system.
Several Array Drives can be operated simultaneously.
ƒ
Operation in 64 Bit and 32 Bit PCI slots. Full Bus Mastering. Maximum data transfer
rates:
32 Bit / 33 MHz (RS Series):
132MB/sec
32 Bit / 66 MHz (RZ Series): 264MB/sec
64 Bit / 66 MHz (RZ Series): 528MB/Sec
ƒ
"Private" (i.e., for one Array Drive) or "Pool" (i.e., for several Array Drives) Hot Fix Drives.
ƒ
Online Capacity Expansion. Add one or several new disk drives to an existing Array Drive
to expand its capacity. During the Expansion all data are redundant.
ƒ
Online RAID Level Migration. Online change of an Array Drive's RAID Level, e.g., from
RAID 0 to RAID 5.
ƒ
Online Capacity Expansion and RAID Level migration can be performed simultaneously.
