Serial ATA II, the successor technology to
SATA for data storage, is a point-to-point connection that delivers full
throughput to each storage device by allowing multiple ports to be managed by a
single controller. Adaptec Serial ATA II technology delivers data transfer rates
with 3 Gb/s while still supporting 1.5 Gb/s (SATA I).The Adaptec Serial ATA II
RAID 1420SA card is a four-port controller featuring Adaptec HostRAID - an
integrated RAID technology that maximizes system performance and uptime. The
Adaptec 1420SA supports up to four Serial ATA drives and offers RAID levels 0
(striping), 1 (mirroring), and JBOD (individual drive). The Adaptec 48-bit
logical block addressing (LBA) support enables use of disk drives exceeding 137
GB in capacity. The Adaptec 1420SA supports Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003,
Windows XP, RedHat Linux, SuSE Linux, and NetWare.
