Aurora & HDX2-ADA at a Glance
Aurora
The Aurora RAID family is a purpose-built, feature-rich RAID that can be used as a direct-attached system or a SAN appliance. Aurora’s performance
and unique adaptable design integrates our RAID 6 engine technology (EOS) with the latest industry-standard hardware components. This design
allows Aurora to “leap-frog” other manufacturers’ hardware ASIC-based RAID controller roadmaps. Our engineers have developed Aurora with a
unique set of tools to simplify your storage environment and deliver industry-leading performance. This performance is adaptable to many different
computer storage applications including high random IOPS and high sustained large block transfers.
EOS software cuts your ongoing operating costs and maximizes uptime by maintaining peak performance during rebuild. EOS completes the RAID
rebuild up to 6 times faster than an ASIC-based RAID controller. The new Galaxy Aurora now supports eight 8Gb FC connections with additional
connectivity through Infi niband and Ethernet.
