totally independent of host and operating system

The Advantage of Ultra160 SCSI

maximum synchronous data transfer rates up to 
160 MB/sec per channel (LVDS)

data integrity validation to increase data reliability 

SCSI bus tests to guarantee stable data transfer

Versatile Connectivity and Networking Capabilities

software-switchable multi-mode termination

either SE (Single Ended) or LVDS (Low Voltage
Differential Signalling) operation

up to 15 devices per channel

cable length up to 12 meters (LVDS) per channel

2 external VHD connectors

Efficient Hardware

runs in 64-Bit slots and fully backward compatible to 
32-Bit slots 

hardware XOR engine for optimized RAID 4/5 
operations

backwards compatible to Wide/Ultra SCSI devices
