ITEM# FASTTRAK/TX2K Description: Promise FastTrak TX2000 Ultra ATA133 RAID PCI Card
FastTrak TX2000 raises consumer-based ATA RAID to professional levels. The FastTrak TX2000 ATA RAID card supports Ultra ATA/133 drives to rock workstations and boost small (or large) office servers like never before.
FastTrak TX2000 breaks the video/sound barrier with RAID 0 striping data speeds that easily exceed that of a single Ultra ATA/133 drive. Or use RAID 1 mirroring or 0+1 to protect valuable office data...and take advantage of fast Ultra ATA/133 transfers.
Features:
- Uses standard high octane Ultra ATA/133
drives
- Builds huge capacity arrays with up to
4 drives
- Supports 66MHz PCI motherboards for
doubled data throughput
Benefits:
- FastTrak TX2000 offers better data transfer
support for Ultra ATA/133 drives under RAID 1 or
RAID 0+1 than a conventional controller, while
at the same time protecting user data every time
you save a file. You get burst data transfers of
133MB per second for your workstation or office
server. TX2000 keeps your system up and
running… even if a drive fails. Plus it supports
on-the-fly hot swap replacement of a failed drive
to get to your data 24 x 7 for continuous
PC operation.
- FastTrak TX2000 builds maximum value and
reliability with its industry-leading, best-selling
Ultra ATA/133 Promise chipset that’s been
thoroughly tested by virtually every drive manuf
a c t u r e r. The onboard Promise BIOS auto-identifies
and optimizes attached drives, assuring
maximum throughput.
