RTX800-IR iSCSI RAID
• 8 TrayFree bays
• 2 iSCSI ports (scroll down to learn about iSCSI)
• Up to 200+ MB/s (network dependant)
• RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 3, 5, 6 & JBOD
iSCSI, bascially, means SCSI over IP - or, SCSI over your ethernet network connection. Virtually every computer has an ethernet port. RTX400-IR will require a network IP address, and you will connect to RTX400-IR with an iSCSI initiator. Because you can plug it in virtually anywhere in your network, it doesn't even need to be in the same room with you.
TrayFree™ Trayless Technology for RTX™ Enclosures
WiebeTech's TrayFree bays make installing drives a breeze. It really is as easy as opening the door, sliding the drive in, and closing the door. No screws, no trays, it just works.
RAID for when failure is not an option
The many RAID options available with RTX give you the power to choose exactly how safe you want your data to be, and RAIDing with RTX is a piece of cake. The RAID options are on a scrolling menu, so it's easy to choose the RAID level you need. Configure as RAID 5, or even as a RAID 5 with a hot spare.
