HeritageRAID Features Enhanced Power Savings Technology
HeritageRAID-SA/2S RAID systems now feature an enhanced power-saving feature that will enable energy efficiency through a system power requirements reduction of as much as 65%. Allowing users to flexibly configure power-saving levels for individual logical drives, the enhanced feature promises to maintain applications' service levels when implementing power-management mechanism. Depending on applications' access frequency and ideal performance levels, users can configure the power-saving mode of their respective logical drives as level 1, level 2, or the combination of the two. Set with level 1 mode, disks will enter idle state if they have not received I/O for a user-configured period of time. In this state, disk drives take only one second to respond when accessed. Set with level 2 mode, the drives enter spin-down state. According to internal tests, although spun-down drives takes longer to respond when accessed, they require less than 20% of power consumption and contribute to overall system energy savings of approximately 50% and up to 65%. The two levels can be further combined into a two-stage procedure. Receiving no I/O for a pre-set period of time, the disks would first become idle then, if the no I/O status continues the disk drives will spin-down. The enhanced power-saving feature gives users the flexibility to find their own balance between storage performance and energy efficiency. Firmware ver.3.64J and 3.64P or later is required.

Nexsan Revs Up SATA-Based Product Family With RAID-6 Support

Nexsan Technologies, a leader in innovative storage solutions, now supports RAID-6, delivering an additional layer of data protection for critical enterprise storage applications.

RAID-6 is becoming an increasingly important data reliability feature for high-capacity disk arrays in customer installations and applications with extreme data availability requirements. Nexsan's full line of cost-correct SATA-based storage arrays – the SATABeast™, SATABoy™ and SATABlade™ – now comes standard with RAID-6 capability.

The addition of RAID-6 fault tolerance is the latest example of Nexsan's tradition of providing customers with cost-correct, highly scalable and high-availability storage solutions. The combination of SATA-II performance and the enterprise-class availability enabled by RAID-6 has the potential to reshape the enterprise storage market. Customers who have been saddled with the high cost of SCSI and Fibre Channel drives can now utilize Nexsan's SATA-based products to dramatically reduce the cost of primary storage for video streaming and other high-bandwidth applications.

"The massive capacities and application availability demands of enterprise customers are having a transitional impact on the way storage arrays are architected,” said Gary Watson, CTO of Nexsan. “ The concept of RAID-6 is not new, but only recently has it become possible to eliminate the inherent performance penalty of RAID-6 technology through developments such as Nexsan's advanced ASIC technology developed for use in its SATA RAID controllers. Applying RAID-6 to fast, high-capacity SATA disk arrays provides our customers with an optimal package of capacity, performance, data availability and affordability.”

Nexsan's implementation of RAID-6 has been optimized for SATA disk drives, providing protection against the failure of any two drives in a RAID set. As drives grow from 500 gigabytes to one terabyte and beyond, RAID-6 also protects against the small but increasingly significant chance of encountering unrecoverable media errors during a conventional RAID-5 rebuild process. With RAID-5, such errors result in ‘holes' in the data, which may result in errors at the application layer. RAID-6, in contrast, provides another layer of redundancy to plug any such holes.

Nexsan offers a full line of RAID-6 enabled SATA storage solutions to service a broad range of applications, including fixed content, reference data and disk-to-disk backup and replication for business continuity and disaster recovery. Nexsan's SATA products feature the massive scalability of the SATABeast, the ultra-performance of the SATABoy and the 1U simplicity of the SATABlade. All Nexsan RAID-6 enabled SATA storage arrays are currently available.
