Designed to meet the challenges of the most demanding
environments, ATAboy2 delivers unparalleled availability and
performance in an ATA RAID device. With sustained thoughput
speeds of up to 170 MB/s per controller, ATAboy2 provides high
performance across all standard platforms and operating systems.
Quad SCSI or dual 2Gb fibre channel connectors (per controller)
enable easy and flexible implementation into a wide range of
environments. Ataboy2's unique combination of high performance
and enormous capacity provides exceptional value that enhances
all digital storage applications, such as live on-line data,
HDTV, digital film and video, nearline storage, security, audio,
disk-based backup (D2D) and disaster recovery.
Unsurpassed reliability
results from utilizing redundancy, advanced ATA disk
drives and the latest in RAID technology. The Nexsan
designed GUI interface, NexSCAN™, provides the latest in
centralized management and monitoring features for all
Nexsan subsystems. Tele-Guard™, Nexsan's phone home
manager, provides operator selectable parameters
monitoring all system conditions. Tele-Guard™ provides the
vehicle to notify single or multiple system operators of
any user defined, system triggered event. In addition to
supporting On-Line Hot-Swap for all active components, the
InfiniSAN ATAboy unique run-time diagnostics and error
handling software monitors automatic fail over initiation
for all active components. InfiniSAN ATAboy2 ATA
disk-based systems provide the maximum uptime operation
and data protected environment available today.
