AcceleRAID™
The AcceleRAID family features high performance, cost effective Ultra
SCSI/Ultra2 SCSI LVD to PCI RAID controllers and adapters for high-end
desktops, workstations, and entry level and mid range servers. AcceleRAID
controllers support PCI-based motherboards with embedded SCSI chips and
systems that have a PCI expansion slot designated for add-in RAID
controllers. The AcceleRAID family consists of the 150, 200, and 250
controllers. All of these can utilize the on-board SCSI chips of servers and
use SCSI interrupt steering logic. In addition the 150 and 250 products can
work in any PC or server with a PCI slot whether or not they have SCSI
interrupt steering logic. The 150 and 250 have one Ultra2 SCSI LVD
channel.

Application Server
An application program is designed to perform a specific function directly
for the user or, in some cases, for another application program. Examples of
applications include word processors, database programs, Web browsers,
development tools, drawing, paint, and image editing programs, and
communication programs. An application server is a centralized computer
that holds and distributes these applications to users.
