Product Overview

Xserve RAID combines leading-edge storage technologies for superior capacity and data protection in a 3U rack-optimized enclosure. Fast throughput and flexible configuration options make Xserve RAID ideal for businesses and institutions that demand high-availability, high-performance storage. With up to 5.6TB of capacity and innovative tools for remote management, this breakthrough RAID solution is easy to configure, easy to maintain and powerful enough to meet your organizations growing storage requirements. The innovative Apple-designed Xserve RAID architecture combines affordable, high-capacity Ultra ATA drive technology with a dual 2Gb Fibre Channel host interface for fast, reliable data access. Each Apple Drive Module uses a dedicated drive channel, maximizing the 400MB/s Fibre Channel host connection.

Each 7200 rpm hard drive connects to a dedicated ATA/100 drive channel to eliminate bottlenecks and maximise the 400MBps Fibre Channel host connection. This in turn means that as you add drives, Xserve RAID scales in both capacity and performance. And with an industry-standard 42U rack holding 35 terabytes of storage, you can keep adding drives for virtually unlimited storage. Xserve RAID is designed for non-stop operation, with uninterrupted access to your critical data. Redundant hot-swappable drives and cooling modules enable the system to keep running even if one module were to fail. All active components are modular and designed to be switched in and out of place in seconds - without tools, and without interruption of service.
