NewerTech MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G 1e1i
MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G-1e1i
Eliminate the SATA drive bus speed limit! Adding the MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G-1e1i to your Mac or PC provides a SAS/SATA 6G (6.0Gb/s) drive bus with up to twice the data transfer speed, regardless of your computer's built-in SATA 3G (3.0Gb/s) data bus. Utilizing the MAXPower's RAID processor, you can maximize your total performance up to 4800MB/s in RAID 0 mode or achieve the perfect balance of performance and protection in RAID 5 mode.
This feature-rich, high-value mass storage controller card is an ideal solution for those working with multiple high-speed HD video streams and/or anyone seeking high performance daily IT operation and back-up for an SMB. With mini-SAS, there's no loss of throughput as it provides full data transfer of four drives through one connection.
RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Drives. This means taking multiple matching drives and arranging them together to achieve a large storage space, high speed, data protection, or any combination of the three. The MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G-2e controller card supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and 50 levels as well as supporting JBOD (SPAN and individual drive modes).
Data is striped (RAID 0) over two RAID 5 sets to provide increased speed while maintaining redundancy.

Does the MAXPower mini-SAS 6G card support tape devices?The MAXPower mini-SAS 6G card was optimized to RAID HDD's and SSD's and does not support tape devices.
Which Connecting Cable Should You Choose?When using Passive/passthrough mini-SAS storage solutions equipped with "6G" 6Gb/s (SATA 3.0 Revision) drives, we strongly recommend only using connecting cables of 1 meter or shorter length due to the increased signal integrity requirements of 6G drives. Active storage solutions such as SAS expander systems equipped with 6G drives can utilize mini-SAS connecting cables up to 10 meters in length. This is dependent upon the external enclosure.
Boot Camp CompatibilityPlease note that running the MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G card in Windows XP is only supported on a PC and is not supported via Boot Camp on a Mac. Windows Vista and 7 are fully compatible with the MAXPower RAID mini-SAS 6G card via Boot Camp on a Mac.
