EnhanceBOX E8 ML
8-Bay Desktop Multi-lane SFF-8470 Disk Array Enclosure
A Pioneer and leader in hybrid I/O technologies, Enhance Technology introduces the EnhanceBOX E8 Series, a host card (HBA) dependent, desktop storage array product line, developed for OEM, VAR, & storage solution providers. Supporting both SAS or SATA I/II hard disks, the E8 Series features a new generation Mini-SAS (MS), Multi-lane (ML) and Port multiplier (PM) host connectivity capable of sustaining data rates up to 450MB/Sec (Mini-SAS Model). Constructed with aluminum material and hot-swappable cooling fan, the E8 Series is the coolest storage system on the market with a host of hot-swap components, empowering users with capabilities normally found in enterprise-class SCSI systems.
Technology
The E8 Series was built on the latest I/O technology, the Mini-SAS (SFF-8088), Multilane (ML) and Port Multiplier (PM) connectivity , for multiple-disk configurations and superior airflow. The Enhance Technology E8 Series comes with highly reliable, thumb screw type cable/connector that combines up to eight (8) low-cost SATA or high reliable SAS (ML & MS Models) disks to the broadband high performance computing environments. Available in 8 or 4 -port configurations, the E8 Series is the only and coolest external desktop storage array helped resellers and integrators to offer more cost/effective storage solution to the end customers.
