2. Full 48-bit ATA addressing standard support.
   
3. Maximum capacity 4 Terabytes when using 500 Gigabytes drives.
   
   

Advanced Features

1. Exclusive Advanced Data Sentry technology (RAID 6) provides the highest level of data protection. Multiple simultaneous drive failures can be tolerated without downtime or data loss.
   
2. Array Roaming feature gives administrators the ability to move a complete raid set to another system without losing RAID configuration and data on that raid set.
   
3. Full 48-bit ATA addressing standard support allows for up to 144 petabytes capacity per drive to be utilized in the RAID array.
   
4. Redundant Flash Image provides an extra layer of protection against the firmware image corruption. If the primary firmware of the RAID controller becomes corrupted, the secondary firmware image will automatically be used.
   
5. RAID controller provides RAID 0, 0+1, 1, 3, 5, and RAID 6, Global Hot Spare Disk, Auto Rebuild, and up to 1GB of DDR ECC SDRAM-based data cache.
   
6. Intelligent SATA backplane design (uses no cables) allows "hot swapping" of disk canisters, power supplies, and fans for increased reliability, lower cost, and ease of maintenance.
   
7. SNMP supported.
   
8. Built-in management ethernet port provides easy access to the web-based GUI RAID Manager for configuration, management, and monitoring functions. E-mail event notification built in.
