EonStor S12E-R1132-4/G1133-2 Installation and Hardware Reference Manual
RAID functionality as other EonStor subsystems, the S12E
subsystem provides a reliable platform for IT operations such as
backup, data-mining, or strategic data allocation.
This subsystem features a high-density architecture that supports up
to twelve (12) hot swappable, SAS or SATA-II hard drives. The
subsystem is powered by active-active or a single RAID controller
featuring the latest ASIC400, RAID6 ASIC as the RAID engine. The
pre-installed 512MB DDR RAM DIMM module can be upgraded to a
2GB capacity DIMM to support complicated applications that hold
numerous ID/LUN combinations.
In addition to the ease of implementation, the S12E also supports
capacity expansion via its SAS links. If you use S12E-R1132-4, you
can attach the S12S-J1002-R
JBOD; if you use S12E-G1133-2, you
can attach S12S-J1000-G JBOD. If using 1TB size SATA drives in a
combination of single-controller RAID and JBOD, S12E-R1132-4 can
reach a maximum capacity of 48TB, while S12E-G1133-2 can reach
the maximum capacity of 60TB.
The S12E-R1132-4 features high-availability design with dual-active
RAID controllers. Dual-redundant, hot-swappable cooling modules,
battery backup, and power supplies ensures the optimal up time. The
modular nature of the subsystem and the easy accessibility to all
components ensure the ease of maintenance.
NOTE:
On receiving and unpacking your subsystem, please check the

S12E-R1132-4:
This model comes with redundant RAID
controllers. The dual-controller configuration corresponds with
SAS drives’ dual-ported design and each manages a separate
SAS domain for higher fault tolerance. The dual-controller model
supports all necessary features such as synchronized cache and
the transparent failover/failback capability.
S12E-G1133-2:
This model comes with one (1) RAID controller.
This model cannot be upgraded into a dual-redundant
configuration by adding a partner RAID controller. Except for
controller redundancy, the single-controller configuration
