Sunnyvale, CA
PCI Systems Inc. has announced the release of its new RAID64 Rugged Network Attached Storage MicroATR chassis. Designed with a scalable architecture within the PCI Systems VITA73 “MicroATR” line of products, the system supports a wide range of applications, including manned and unmanned aircraft.
Designed for compact size, low weight, and mounting flexibility, the RAID64 combines sustained throughput of 5.2 Terrabyte per second in RAID0 mode using 8 internal 8TB 2.5 SATA3 SSDs for a memory capacity of up to 64Terrabyte.
The RAID64 is 5.7” deep 4” high and 6” wide, and weighs less than 5 lbs. These capabilities, combined with meeting harsh MIL-SPEC Environmental qualifications, make the RAID48 suited for applications where performance cannot be sacrificed, regardless of mounting location.
Interface available on the RAID64 includes a iLink cable connection with PCIe Gen2 x8 lanes which is also available as an optical version.
PCI Systems has been selected by different integrators for this very high speed RAID/NAS system.
A companion high speed server based on VITA73 is available too.
“This technology is part of PCI Systems’s development on providing rugged, intelligent, small form factor computer systems, based on VITA specifications, that meet our customer requirements, while leading the market in very small, high speed storage for industrial and military platforms.” stated Claus J. Gross, President at PCI Systems.
PCI-SYSTEMS Inc. develops and manufactures COTS and CUSTOM intelligent VPX Systems, Power supply, CPU and peripheral boards as well as advanced mechanical design solutions in the US and Europe for many platforms that provide precision control of robotic and automated equipment in the semiconductor, medical and industrial equipment markets as well as for ruggedized embedded OEM applications in airborne and defense applications.
