1.0 Diamond Storage Array Product Overview

The Diamond Storage Array offers up to 24 ATA disk drives in a rack mount or floor model configuration.

The Diamond Storage Array is ideally suited for data intensive applications such as web hosting, e- mail servers, on-line transaction processing, digital video editing, medical imaging and digital audio editing. Virtually any high performance computing system with a growing need for storage capacity can use the power of the Diamond Storage Array.

With the cost effective approach of using ATA disk drives, you can add more storage capacity as your needs grow without the budget-busting costs of other disk storage technologies. You can also improve the performance and capacity of the Diamond Storage Array cabinet as technology progresses by simply replacing disk drive sleds and Host Interface Cards.

The Diamond Storage Array is operating system independent and supports all popular computer

hardware platforms and network environments with a 2-gigabit Fibre Channel interface or an Ultra160 SCSI interface.

The Diamond Storage Array is a fully populated, turnkey solution with drives pre-installed. It is fully supported by highly trained customer service and engineering staffs.

The Diamond Storage Array uses Aggregated Data Transfer Technology (ADXTJ) to merge the performance of multiple ATA drives to achieve sustained, full bandwidth data transfer rates. ADXT provides end users with the power and sophisticated data control needed to take moderately priced ATA disk drives, combine them in a disk storage array, and power them to the performance levels of SCSI or Fibre Channel disk arrays.
