ESU2DSATA10 is USB 2.0 & eSATA to dual SATA RAID Bridge Board

ES2DSATA10 is eSATA to dual SATA RAID Bridge Board

ESU2DSATA10/ES2DSATA10 is a selectable hardware RAID Bridge Board with two SATA ports. A true hardware solution, ESU2DSATA10/ES2DSATA10 requires no software to be installed on your machine.

You can configure the ESU2DSATA10/ES2DSATA10 to use the following Storage Policies to map the appliance's physical hard drives to virtual drives that are visible to the host computer.

• BIG (Concatenation)
• JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks)
• FAST (RAID 0)
• SAFE (RAID 1)
• SAFE33 (1/3 to SAFE mode and 2/3 to BIG mode)
• SAFE50 (1/2 to SAFE mode and 1/2 to BIG mode)
• GUI (Use the SteelVine Manager GUI to configure the Storage Policy)

Host Link

• One eSATA Signal 7pin Receptacle Connector
  • Serial ATA Gen2m compliance
  • eSATA and 2-meter cable support
  • 3 Gbps (auto-negotiates to 1.5 Gbps)
  • Compatible with PM aware and non-PM
    aware hosts
  • Allows multiple drives to be accessed by non-
    PM aware drive hosts
  • Supports NCQ
• One eSATA Link&ACT LED
• One USB B-Type connector (Only for ESU2DSATA10)
  • Complies with USB 2.0 specification
  • 480 Mb/s (can auto-negotiate to 12 Mb/s)
  • Compatible with OHCI / UHCI / EHCI hosts
  • Supports up to four LUNs
  • Supports Mass Storage Class
• One USB Link&ACT LED (Only for ESU2DSATA10)

Device Link

• Two SATA Signal 7pin Latch Connector
  • Serial ATA Gen2m compliance
  • eSATA and 2-meter cable support
  • 3 Gbps (auto-negotiates to 1.5 Gbps)
  • Independent 8KB FIFO / Port
  • Power management capabilities
  • Supports hot plug
  • Supports ATAPI & asynchronous notification
  • Provides device Link and Activity LED (4 pin header) for each SATA port.

Drive Locking

• Which helps protect user's data by allowing them to password lock directly attached and cascaded drives.

Backup Button

• ESU2DSATA10 supports single-button backup through third-party applicationsfor simple and worryifree data protection.

eSATA-Based Capacity Expansion

• With eSATA-based capacity expansion, the capacity of ESU2DSATA10 enabled appliance can be easily expanded either by adding additional drives directly or by adding additional ES2DSATA10 enabled devices in a cascaded topology. These additional drives will dynamically appear (in BIG, SAFE33 or SAFE50) to the host system as increased storage capacity in the existing volume.
