Areca ARC-1160 PCI-X 16-port SATA II RAID Controller
The ARC-1160
SATA II RAID Controller is a high performance PCI-X bus to SATA Disk Array host
adapter. SATA II technology improves data transmission through a point-to-point
topology, which eliminates bus sharing thereby delivering a full 3Gb/s bandwidth
to each drive. When properly configured, the SATA host adapter can provide
non-stop service with a high degree of fault tolerance through the use of RAID
technology and advanced array management features. The Serial ATA RAID Host
adapter is low-profile, ideal for rackmount systems. The ARC-1100 series uses
the same RAID kernel of its field-proven external RAID controllers.
