Providing up to 24Gb/s of bandwidth over the external multilane 6G SAS host interface, the PROMISE VTrak* Jx30 series allows storage applications to access their data at blistering speeds. The 6G SAS architecture paves the way for immense available bandwidth to support the flood of unstructured data now flowing across networks today. Providing up to 24Gb/s of bandwidth over the external multilane 6G SAS host interface, the VTrak Jx30 series allows storage applications to access their data at blistering speeds. The 6G SAS architecture paves the way for immense available bandwidth to support the flood of unstructured data now flowing across networks today. Fully backward-compatible with 3G SAS/SATA devices, users have the ability to deploy 3G and 6G SAS/SATA hard drives and solid state devices (SSD) in the Jx30 series. PROMISE VTrak products utilize a high-efficiency design, sporting 80-Plus Bronze Certified power supplies that provide up-to 85% power efficiency and improve total cost of ownership by conserving power, reducing heat output and improving cooling costs.

The Intel® RAID Controller RS2PI008, part of the Intel portfolio of 6Gb/s SAS adapters, offers unprecedented performance with exceptional data protection and design flexibility. Features including LSI’s SAS2108 6Gb/s RAID-on-Chip (RoC) silicon and a native PCI Express* 2.0 architecture technology allow for significant performance gains for both 3Gb/s and 6Gb/s drive-based solutions. Data protection and availability are enhanced by new features including decision-feedback equalization for greater signal integrity, enhanced diagnostics, and more robust error reporting.
