The XtendLan disk array XL-RAID-SATA provides both RAID 1 and
RAID 0 functions with its independent disk array microprocessor chips.
It is considered as the best choice for storage expansion and instant
online backup.
No hardware driver needed and applicable to all operating
systems
XL-RAID-SATA is equipped with the standard SATA
Type 1 and ATA133 connection interfaces. The
XL-RAID-
SATA system not only possesses high transfer rate but also
does not require specific system drivers. Therefore, it can
be simply applied to any computer system without any
concerns about incompatibility.
Supports both SATA and E_IDE hard drive
XL-RAID-SATA comes with removable hard drive
carrier that is compatible with these two types of enclosure
module. It can be applied to hard drives with E_IDE interface
or to the SATA hard drives.
Hot Swappable Drive
Under the mirroring mode (RAID 1), when one hard drive is
damaged, XtendLan allows the system to switch hard drive
without pausing the system operations.
Auto Data Rebuilding
Under the mirroring mode (RAID 1), XL-RAID-SATA will treat
one hard drive as the source hard drive and the other as the
target hard drive. Therefore, it does not require any specific
command or system interruption to rebuild the hard drive while
the computer system is still running.
