Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA SAS/SATA to Fibre Channel RAID series are intelligent and innovative storage subsystems for mission critical and high bandwidth applications. Purpose-built for high volume, fail-safe data storage applications, the Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA RAID combines unprecedented dependability with extreme scalability and superior performance.

Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA RAID subsystems are equipped with dual redundant Serial ATA-to-8Gb Dual Loop Fibre Channel RAID controllers with transparent failover and failback functionality to ensure unprecedented data security. Two 8Gb/second Fibre Channel host channels on each controller module are routed through an onboard hub to four SFP ports of which two can connect to external host computers and two can connect to another Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA RAID for expansion purposes.

The embedded hub on the host channels eliminates the need for a Fibre Channel switch when connecting to external host computers. An additional 8Gb/second Fibre Channel, connected to a drive expansion port, enables the Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA RAID to connect to up to six cascading Spod 16s-HA JBODs.

The Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA features RAID Cache battery backup modules with two Lithium-Ion battery cells on each RAID controller. With two redundant dual-fan cooling modules and two redundant 530 Watt power supply units, the Enterprise™ FS16ez-HA RAID operates with unsurpassed reliability in today's most extreme storage environments.
