SuperSwap 4100 - SUPERSWAP4100
Combine the SuperSwap 4100 with your fault-tolerant Promise Serial ATA RAID array to setup a cost-effective, high-availability server or workstation storage subsystem.The SuperSwap 4100 enclosure system is compact with support for four Serial ATA drives in three drive spaces. It enables hard drive hot swap capability in the event of drive failure.The SuperSwap 4100 also features redundant cooling fans and power connectors for added high-availability protection.
More than just a hot-swap drive carrier, the SuperSwap 4100 also provides numerous advanced features that offer added protection for your storage system. The cable-free drive-to-chassis connection improves signal quality and data integrity. The carrier clasp mechanism prevents unwanted removal of your disk drive.
Hot Swap is an essential feature for the RAID storage required by high-availability servers. Hot swap is supported in the SATA specification, but implementing a hot swap solution requires more than simply using Serial ATA drives-you must use an enclosure like the SuperSwap 4100 that provides hard disk access while the system operates.
With the SuperSwap 4100 and a Promise Serial ATA RAID solution, replacing a failed drive with a working drive couldn't be easier. Just unclasp the quick-release latch on the drive chassis and slide out the SuperSwap 4100 drive carrier from the housing, exchange drives, and slide the carrier back in, all without powering down the system. Promise Serial ATA RAID adapter cards instantly begin rebuilding data to the working drive.
