The MediaVault 4105 is based on HUGE System's 3rd generation RAID architecture, combining the latest 4Gb Fibre Channel interface technology with cost-effective ATA disk drive technology. It delivers the reliable performance needed for today's most demanding HD applications. The MediaVault 4105 is a five drive desktop enclosure compatible with Mac, Windows, Unix and Linux platforms, as well as major brands of video editing, capture and playback cards/devices. The MediaVault 4210 is a dual channel rackmount version of the 4105. The 4105 is capable of sustaining 300 MB/sec. A single MediaVault 4105 will record and play back the highest quality video, including 1080i HD/10 bit in HDT mode; or multiple uncompressed standard definition video streams - making it the ideal storage solution for standard definition and high definition editing.
Improved Simplicity & Connectivity
Fibre Channel dramatically simplifies installations - offering smaller, simpler cables, allowing more resilience to signal interference, and enabling much greater cable distances than parallel SCSI. Moreover, Fibre Channel supports multiple topologies, including point-to-point, arbitrated loop, and switched fabric, enabling the MediaVault to operate equally effectively in direct attached or storage area network (SAN) environments (SAN software sold separately). You don't have to worry about existing Fibre Channel infrastructure either - MediaVault's 4Gb interface is backwards compatible with 2Gb and 1Gb Fibre Channel components.
Highly Reliable
All MediaVault Disk Arrays allow you to select either RAID 0 or RAID 3 to match the performance and reliability best suited for the application. Utilize RAID 0 (striped drives) to achieve the greatest performance, or utilize RAID 3 (data protected) for excellent performance and the added protection of no performance degradation and no data loss if a drive fails. Huge Systems' highly efficient RAID engine performs rebuilds of failed drives in the background - with easy service and upgrade. |
