The RocketStor 6422AS is a professional-grade, high-density Hardware RAID solution designed for Mac and PC Platforms, and Capacity-optimized Storage applications; media libraries, Nearline Archiving Storage, and Server &Workstations. The hardware RAID architecture incorporates ARM based processors and RAID5/6 CRC32 engines with internal DDR3 memory to optimize transfer speeds and accelerate access times.
Optimized Server Storage Performance
Our industry proven hardware RAID architecture optimizes the performance and reliability of the entire storage environment. The dedicated hardware allows the RocketStor to work independently and minimizes the RAID storage impact on the host resources.
Uncompromised Data Availability & Security
Storage Health Inspector (SHI) proactively maintains the health of arrays by examining each disk for failed sectors, which can be remapped or repaired on the fly to ensure storage remains accessible. Administrators can initialize or schedule RAID verification sessions that check each disk for parity consistency and automatically rebuild if problems are found to ensure the integrity of data.
Robust Design & Modular, Redundant Components Deliver Uncompromised Reliability
The RocketStor 6422AS’s efficient, ultra-quiet cooling fans and front to rear ventilation work in tandem to keep ambient temperatures in check. The IPC-Grade redundant power supplies and cooling fans are modular for easy replacement, and maximize uptime for the entire storage environment.
Intelligent Enclosure Management
LED’s and configurable audible alarms are provided to quickly notify the administrator in the case of a component failure or environmental warning such as power loss or overheating.
Comprehensive, User-Friendly Management Suite
The RocketStor 6422AS’s management suite is available for all major operating systems and includes BIOS-level and Web-based RAID interfaces, with optional CLI packages for Linux & FreeBSD platforms. Administrators of any experience level can quickly and easily monitor, maintain and troubleshoot storage configurations.
