Highpoint Technologies RocketRAID 1820A Serial ATA Controller

With 8 Serial ATA channels, the RocketRAID 1820A provides multi-level RAID support including RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and JBOD. With an optimized XOR technique and advanced Intelligent Cache Algorithm powered by the HPT 601, the RocketRAID 1820A provides a significant performance enhancement for RAID implementations. The RocketRAID1820A solution is aimed at enterprise storage, NAS storage, web servers, video streaming, back up and security systems. The 64-bit PCI-X architecture supports transfer rates above 1 gigabyte per second, and operates up to 133MHz. In addition, it is backwards compatible with the existing standard PCI bus. The bandwidth provided by PCI-X makes the RocketRAID 1820A an ideal solution for industry standard servers running enterprise applications. The RocketRAID 1820A supports Command Queuing (CQ), which can significantly enhance randomized read and write performance of hard disks. Minimize
