Unifosa: 12Gb SAS JBOD

Unifosa Corp. (Proware) launched the 2U 12-bay 12Gb SAS JBOD, EP-2246J/JD-SCSC, which offers high density storage, hardware redundancy and integrates into applications that request performance and scalability.

It accommodates the SAS 3.0 12Gb interface which boost up the throughput up to 4,800MB/s per host.

Based on this performance, it can meet demands for intensive data access applications, virtualization and Windows Server 2012 installation, and video edition related applications.

It comes with either dual or single JBOD controller configuration for options. On each JBOD controller, the built-in three 12Gb 4x mini SAS HD ports doubles bandwidth and throughput than former 6Gb interface. These three SAS ports can be configured as either SAS host channel or SAS expansion port by request. It also incorporates enhancements in SAS along with LSI DataBolt bandwidth optimizer technology. Using DataBolt, it delivers throughput by allowing users to gain 12Gb host speeds with current-generation 6Gb drives.

It houses up to twenty-four 2.5” hot-swappable drives and supports 12Gb SAS or 6Gb SATA HDDs or SSDs in a compact 2U chassis. It features a modular architecture for all key components which ease system maintenance and management, offers GUI management to monitor enclosure environmental conditions through a remote connection, utilizes standard SCSI enclosure services (SES) to monitor enclosure and disk environmental conditions, such as temperature, voltage, fan speed and power supply status.
