AccuSTOR AS316X2 - 3U 16 Bay Rackmount SAS/SATA to SAS JBOD with SAS Expander

The AccuSTOR AS316X2 is a 3U rack-mountable SAS JBOD rackmount for high capacity storage. Due to the wide selection of SAS RAID controllers and diverse controller interfaces, most JBOD units are unable to support detailed enclosure monitoring. This limitation delays the process of troubleshooting, where administrators are unable to promptly identify the problem at first glance. The AccuSTOR AS316X2 addresses this issue by incorporating a user selectable switch, allowing the unit to support monitoring via various brands of RAID controllers. Once the controller model has been determined via the selectable switch, the AS316X2 utilizes industry-standard SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) technology, to allow the communication between the rackmount and the host RAID adapter, without the need for additional monitoring software or hardware cable. Compatible RAID cards include: Intel SAS RAID, LSI MegaRAID, Dell PERC external SAS RAID, Areca 1680X or 1680iX series, ATTO ExpressSAS, Adaptec SAS RAID and 3ware SAS RAID controllers.

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

• Cable-less & Modular Design - Cable-less backplane and controller module guarantees maximum data signal integrity, eliminating potential troubles by cable-wiring, for easy to service and maintenance.
• Staggering Spin-Up - Built-in staggering spin-up for hard drives during power up, extending the life / duty cycle of the hard drives and power supply.
• LCD Display & Enclosure ID - Built-in LCD displays critical enclosure information. The LCD displays the ID of the enclosure, where each enclosure could be easily identified in a multiple-enclosure environment.
• Enclosure Management (SES) - Utilizes industry standard SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) to monitor enclosure and disk environmental conditions. SES is also used by the enclosure to communicate with the host RAID adapter to display enclosure information within the RAID management console.
• Scalability - Supports up to 4 enclosures chained together for capacity expansion.
• Multi-purposes - Supports both SAS (Serial SCSI) or SATA hard drives to meet the requirements of different applications with different price/performance characteristics. Cost-effective SATA drives could be used for capacity orientated storage such as disk-to-disk backup, data-archiving, and digital video editing. Enterprise level SAS drives could be employed for I/O intensive applications such as transactional databases.
• Enclosure Craftsmanship - Compact 2U x 12-bay with very short depth (18.12”), Built with durable metal material. Excellent cooling with minimal noise.
• Wide Range RAID Adapters Support - Compatible with Areca ARC-1680X, LSI SAS MegaRAID, Intel SAS RAID, Adaptec SAS RAID, and 3Ware SAS RAID adapters.
