RARO™-1130SAPCI RAID OPTION CARDCost-effective, high-performance array upgradefor motherboards with RAIDport® II on boardOverviewFaced with the choice between either theslow performance of RAID-like softwarethat is embedded within the networkoperating system or the prohibitive cost ofhigh-end array solutions, users deployingentry-level servers for small businessesand departmental workgroups often settlefor the weak data protection provided bythe network operating system. Now theyno longer have to compromise.The ARO-1130SA RAID option cardoptimizes performance and cost whileproviding robust fault-tolerant storagefor entry-level servers. The ARO-1130SARAID option card is ideal for improvingdata availability without sacrificing perfor-mance in systems with a PCI-RAIDport IIconnector on the system motherboard.Key BenefitsBuilt-in, flexible upgrade pathThe ARO-1130SA RAID option cardprovides a scalable design solution.Systems can be easily upgraded to RAIDby installing a low-cost option card.A motherboard with the embeddedRAIDport II slot will accommodateone ARO-1130SA RAID option card.Most cost-effective array solutionThe RAIDport II connector makes amotherboard with embedded AdaptecAIC-7895 or AIC-7880 Ultra SCSI chipsRAID-ready. Installing the ARO-1130SARAID option card automatically upgradesthe motherboard from SCSI to RAID.And utilizing already embedded UltraSCSI chips as RAID channels reduces thecomplexity and cost of the ARO-1130SARAID option card, while leveraging theinvestment in SCSI.Robust fault toleranceThe many extra features for improvedstorage system uptime, such as hot-swapand hot-spare drive support; dynamic sec-tor repairing; S.M.A.R.T. drive and SAF-TEsupport make the low-cost ARO-1130SARAID option card the preferred choice tooptimize storage fault tolerance for entry-level servers.Product Highlightsn Enables Adaptec Ultra SCSIchips on the motherboard toperform as SCSI RAID channelsn Supports RAID levels 0 (striping),1 (mirroring), 0/1, and 5n Improves performance usingAdaptec’s AIC®-7815 RAIDco-processorn Makes installation quick andeasy with Adaptec ArrayConfig™ SAsoftwaren Simplifies array managementwith easy-to-use Adaptec CI/OManagement Software™
