Promise FastTrak Cost-effective RAID 0/1/5/10 PCI Controller Card, w/ SATA 3Gb/s Drive Support. Model: TX4310Cost-effective SATA RAID 0/1/5/10 PCI Adapter
The Promise FastTrak TX4310 4-port SATA RAID PCI adapter offers a low-cost solution for implementing a RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 or RAID 10 storage system with up to four high-performance Serial ATA disk drives. Promise Technology is the leading provider of Serial ATA interface solutions, and with the FastTrak TX4310, users can benefit from Promise's experience in maximizing Serial ATA storage system performance.
Promise's Proven FastTrak RAID Engine
The FastTrak TX4310 leverages Promise's proven RAID 0/1/5/10 software engine for fast, efficient, and reliable RAID. Use RAID 0 for massive capacity and maximum performance, RAID 1 for data protection, RAID 5 for maximum data protection and four-drive RAID 10 for data protection and performance enhancement. Promise's RAID engine also offers performance-enhancing technology like elevator seek and load balancing for efficient performance. For maximum uptime, the FastTrak supports features like transparent data recovery and drive rebuilds performed in the background.
SATA 3Gb/s Support
The controller supports SATA 3Gb/s drives and conforms to Serial ATA II, Extensions to SATA 1.0a specification with Native Command Queuing and Disk Activity LED headers support. Command Queuing increases I/O performance by intelligently reordering data requests so that the data can be more quickly accessed than if the commands weren't ordered.
Advanced HBA Features
The low-profile form factor FastTrak TX4310 PCI adapter incorporates many of Promise Technology's advanced host bus adapter features. The 66MHz PCI bus supports up to 266MB/sec burst data transfer rate.
