CeBIT 2011, Storage Pavilion, SUNNYVALE, USA & HANNOVER, GERMANY: PMC-Sierra Inc. announced that the Adaptec by PMC family of Series 6 RAID controllers will be demonstrated in a 6Gb/s ecosystem at CeBIT 2011.
Based on PMC-Sierra’s industry-proven SRC 8x6G RoC and ARC RAID stack, the Series 6 delivers performance, scalability and reduced operating costs. The Series 6 also features a unique Zero-Maintenance Cache Protection feature that provides the highest level of maintenance-free data protection.
To ensure compatibility and interoperability, the Series 6 family of RAID controllers is tested with more than 300 host systems, enclosures, Hard Disk Drives and Solid State Disks (SSDs). PMC-Sierra uses a two-staged approach to test new storage and server components for interoperability. During validation and product launch, the company tests more than 300 components with all supported controller platforms.
In addition, PMC-Sierra’s Interoperability Test Lab (ITL) can test components introduced outside of product launches and add them to the ecosystem. Continuously refined and optimized, the Company’s advanced testing methods include automated processes to rapidly qualify new SSDs in order to keep pace with market requirements.
“As the 6Gb/s channel ecosystem expands, customers want storage solutions that deliver increased performance without compromising interoperability and compatibility,” said Jared Peters, vice president and general manager of PMC-Sierra’s Channel Storage Division. “Our Series 6 RAID controllers allow for backwards compatibility, which enables an easy and cost-effective upgrade path for current 3Gb/s customers, who can continue to benefit from our innovative features such as Zero-Maintenance Cache Protection and Intelligent Power Management.”
