Maximum Performance
Data center
IT
and general consumer server environments have a broad range of requirements – from basic connectivity to extreme data storage capacities. The effectiveness at which their data is accessed and protected is crucial to their ultimate success. Microsemi Adaptec® 12 Gbps PCIe Gen3 Series 8 RAID adapters
coupled with 12 Gbps SSDs
provide maximum read/write bandwidth and IOPS for the most performance-hungry transactional and database applications.
Series 8Q with Adaptec maxCache 3.0
Advancing the performance capabilities of SSD caching to a broader set of application workloads
the Series 8Q with maxCache 3.0 supports read and write back caching. By caching writes to a redundant SSD cache pool (RAID1
RAID1E or RAID5)
maxCache 3.0 leverages the performance and latency capabilities of SSD technology for both read and write workloads. The read caching function is also improved with maxCache 3.0
with additional optimizations to the learned-path algorithm. Adaptec maxCache 3.0 SSD Caching software is the only caching solution that supports up to 2 TB of SSD cache.
Integrated Cache Protection
The Series 8 family continues Adaptec’s battery-free portfolio. Series 8 adapters can be combined with the AFM-700 flash-based cache protection module (sold separately) to enable instant cache protection. New with Series 8
the Adaptec 81605Z and 81605ZQ models have flash backup embedded on the board
eliminating the need for a daughterboard and further enabling Adaptec customers to do more with less.
Advanced Data Protection and Ease of Use
Advanced data protection and ease of use have not been forgotten in Series 8. Adaptec RAID Code (ARC) delivers maximum reliability with an industry-leading feature set
including all of the RAID levels the industry has come to expect
plus unique features like Flexible Configuration modes for the adapter
Hybrid RAID
and Optimized Disk Utilization (ODU) where no available space is wasted. Adaptec’s maxView provides an HTML5 web interface
which can be used in standard desktops and mobile browsers
for all storage configuration and management needs.
