Sans Digital Introduces Infiniband / Multilane EliteRAID ER104TI

Santa Fe Springs, CA — November 2, 2007 — Sans Digital, a leading
manufacturer of high performance storage subsystems, today introduced
EliteSTOR ES104TI, 1U 4 bay JBOD Rackmount supporting both Serial Attached
SCSI (SAS) and Serial-ATA (SATA). ES104TI is a revised version of the
previous ES104T with additional of SAS support using Infiniband, also known
as Multilane or SAS 4x or SFF-8470.

The EliteSTOR ES104TI series is a 1U 4 bay rack-mountable solution that
supports both SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) 3.0-Gb/s or SATA 3.0-Gb/s
interfaces. This system includes four hot-swappable 3.5″ trays for hard
drive installations, with up to 1TB per hard drive. Designed to provide
optimal performance, each hard drive is connected to the computer via a
dedicated eSATA channel for SATA devices, or via Infiniband / Multilane /
SAS (4x SFF-8470) for SAS devices. With this dedicated quad channel design,
the ES104TI could also be used with a RAID Host Bus Adapter (HBA) as an
external RAID rackmount storage. ES104TI is the ideal storage solution for
applications requiring high data throughput, availability, and flexibility
in configuration.

“SAS replaces the legacy parallel SCSI with added performance, scalability
and redundancy. The addition of ES104TI to the EliteSTOR series allows our
users the access to this latest hard drive technology,” stated Grandy Chen,
Sans Digital’s Executive Vice President. “At the same time, the addition of
a RAID controller card is available for both SAS and SATA hard drives,
instantly adding RAID capabilities to this JBOD unit.” More product detail
