SuperSwap 1600 User Manual

View SuperSwap in WebPAM

You can combine SuperSwap 1600 with a Promise FastTrak RAID Controller and 
WebPAM RAID management software on your PC. WebPAM provides a graphic 
user interface (GUI) for array management and enclosure monitoring.

The screen above appears when you click the SuperSwap 

 icon in WebPAM. 

It reports fan speed, enclosure temperature, power status, and the status of the 
disk drives in the SuperSwap enclosure.

While the LEDs on the front of the SuperSwap 1600 indicate general conditions, 
WebPAM reports specific values. The Disk window shows the carrier position in 
SuperSwap enclosure and the controller port to which each disk drive is 
connected. This feature helps you identify a disk drive that may need attention.

There are many other functions that WebPAM does. We have only mentioned 
how SuperSwap 1600 appears in WebPAM.

The WebPAM Software ships with the Promise Serial ATA RAID Controller. You 
can also download WebPAM from:
