Product Overview
A Pioneer and leader in hybrid I/O technologies, Enhance
Technology introduces the EnhanceBOX E8 Series, a host card (HBA)
dependent, desktop storage array product line, developed for
OEM, VAR, & storage solution providers. Supporting both SAS or
SATA I/II hard disks, the E8 Series features a new generation
Mini-SAS (MS), Multi-lane (ML) and Port multiplier (PM) host
connectivity capable of sustaining data rates up to 450MB/Sec
(Mini-SAS Model). Constructed with aluminum material and
hot-swappable cooling fan, the E8 Series is the coolest storage
system on the market with a host of hot-swap components,
empowering users with capabilities normally found in
enterprise-class SCSI systems.
Technology
The E8 Series was built on the latest I/O technology, the
Mini-SAS (SFF-8088), Multilane (ML)
and Port Multiplier (PM) connectivity , for
multiple-disk configurations and superior airflow. The Enhance
Technology E8 Series comes with highly reliable, thumb screw
type cable/connector that combines up to eight (8) low-cost SATA
or high reliable SAS (ML & MS Models) disks to the broadband
high performance computing environments. Available in 8 or 4
