“The Model CPCI-945 Ultra2 SCSI RAID controller board for the
CompactPCI bus from Cyclone Microsystems Inc. provides
‘fault-tolerant storage and maximum data availability for
high-performance embedded systems,’ said vice president of sales
Peter Zackin.”
“A 64-bit, 6U-size board, the CPCI-945 is an intelligent
controller based on an Intel i960RN processor. …offloads all RAID
functions from a host processor… supports RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5,
10, 30 and 50.”
“A broad array of support software is available for the
board, including a RAID management package and drivers for ‘all
major PC server operating systems,’ Zackin said,
including Windows NT, Novell NetWare, IBM OS/2, Sun
Solaris, Linux Red Hat, SCO Unix and UnixWare. The board
also supports ‘industry standards for predicting drive failure and
for management of non-SCSI devices in the server cabinet,’ he said,
as well as Microsoft Cluster Server for Windows NT
environments.”
