Introduction
Serial
ATA II, the successor technology to SATA for data
storage, is a point-to-point connection that delivers
full throughput to each storage device by allowing
multiple ports to be managed by a single controller.
Adaptec Serial ATA II technology delivers data transfer
rates with 3 Gb/s while still supporting 1.5 Gb/s
(SATA I).
The
Adaptec Serial ATA II RAID 1420SA card is a four-port
controller featuring Adaptec HostRAID - an
integrated RAID technology that maximizes system
performance and uptime. The Adaptec 1420SA supports
up to four Serial ATA drives and offers RAID levels
0 (striping), 1 (mirroring), and JBOD (individual
drive). The Adaptec 48-bit logical block addressing
(LBA) support enables use of disk drives exceeding
137 GB in capacity. The Adaptec 1420SA supports
Windows® 2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows
XP, RedHat Linux, SuSE Linux, and NetWare.
