The AccuRAID AR224X6 Series is a 2U rack-mountable RAID solution designed for file servers, backup, audio/video streaming, and digital video recording. It is capable of up to 120TB of capacity with additional AS224X6 JBOD storage expansion units, and is the perfect solution for applications requiring to use 2.5" form factor, including SSD, SATA and SAS 2.5" hard drives. With an industry proven Dual Channel 6G SAS host interface, the AR224X6 provides 6G SAS bandwidth and cutting edge SSD, SAS and SATA hard drive technology. The array supports RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 3,  5, 6, 30, 50, 60 and JBOD modes. Featuring durable, heavy duty steel housing and a user-friendly LCD panel, the AR224X6 is built with Web or RS232 management Interfaces along with SMTP manager monitoring all system events. The AR224X6 is an easy to use building block for large storage systems, and is guaranteed to achieve the most cost-effective performance and data protection. The AR224X6 comes with modular RAID controller, redundant power supply and redundant cooling fans. Built-in redundant controller ready backplane allows non-destructive redundancy controller upgrade path without purchasing a brand new hardware. 

Note: Sans Digital recommends the use of enterprise hard drives when in use with any RAID controller applications. Standard desktop or green desktop drive may not be supported and may compromise RAID system stability and performance. For more information on the difference between RAID and desktop hard drives, please see the Western Digital knowledge base. For a list of compatible RAID Edition SATA hard drives, please contact tech@sansdigital.com for more details.

Note: Please allow 3 days for rackmount testing before shipment.
