Adaptec 131CA - AAA RAID Controller Bedienungsanleitung PDF herunterladen (Seite 2)

Easy to use

Simply plug the AAA-131CA array

adapter into any available PCI slot. Next,

use the ArrayConfigCA’s Installation

Wizard to configure your PC worksta-

tion’s disk drives for caching RAID to

maximize performance. Then install the

Array1000

™

Windows NT Workstation

driver and CI/O Workstation Array

Management software during Windows NT

Workstation setup.It’s that easy.

Array management

Adaptec CI/O Workstation Array

Management software takes the com-

plexity out of array management. Built-

in performance profiler, cache perfor-

mance optimization, and performance

monitoring tools allow you to tune your

PC workstation array’s performance set-

tings for your particular application’s

requirements.

Tuning performance

Select your array and click on “Optimize

Performance”to open a caching parameters

box. Then set your read and write cache

settings for maximum performance. Click

on “Monitor Performance” to launch the

CI/O profiler.

Maximum performance

With your AAA-131CA array adapter

configured for striping,caching dramatically

accelerates your PC workstation’s perfor-

mance. The AAA-131CA array adapter

also supports caching single-drive config-

urations, enabling an even more cost-

effective performance upgrade path.

Caching (read and write)

A factory-installed 16-MByte SIMM

memory module accelerates storage per-

formance with read (look-ahead and

demand) and write (through and back)

caching algorithms.

Bootable array support

With your AAA-131CA array adapter,

PC workstations can be set up to boot

from a disk array. This means the

Windows NT operating system itself

can boot and operate fast. Or, choose

the RAID 1 (mirroring) option to pro-

tect your operating system files from

drive failures.

S.M.A.R.T. drive failure prediction

Drives equipped with Self-Monitoring,

Analysis and Reporting Technology

(S.M.A.R.T.) report predicted failures to

Adaptec CI/O Workstation Array

Management software, permitting you to

replace a drive before it fails.

Tune your AAA-131CA array adapter for

maximum storage acceleration.

Visualize your caching acceleration in

“real time”.
