SRCU42E Controladora SCSI RAID Intel Dual Channel PCI Expres

Enterprises and workgroups need server storage solutions that can protect critical data helping to maintain server performance and availability. They need such solutions to be easily expandable, to support multiple levels of RAID, and to provide the I/O throughput essential for large, mission-critical server systems. To address these needs Intel offers the Intel RAID Controller SRCU42E.

Engineered around the Intel IOP332 500MHz I/O processor based on Intel XScale technology, the Intel RAID Controller SRCU42E provides an intelligent storage solution for mission-critical servers by protecting vital data offloading RAID processing from the server. The RAID Controller SRCU42E provides an extensive selection of RAID capabilities, including support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, and 50 and for RAID management software through the Intel RAID Web Console. This GUI-based tool provides a central, unified environment for simplifying the management of remote servers on a network and other critical monitoring and management activities.
