3ware 9550SXU-4LP

Highest performance SATA II RAID. The 3ware® 9550SXU-4LP PCI-X to SATA II RAID controller delivers reads and writes that make it 200% faster than the previous product generation from 3ware. This controller features 4 internal ports and RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 10, 50, Single Disk, and JBOD.

Seventh-generation StorSwitch™ non-blocking switch fabric technology and sophisticated SATA II features including 3Gb/s transfer speed, Native Command Queuing (NCQ), and pooled DMA channels drive this unmatched performance. Combined with an advanced RAID management feature set that includes web-based, command-based, and API software components, the 9550SXU-4LP is the most compelling PCI-X solution available.
