Cyberstar To Distribute Adaptec 1225SA Controller

Adaptec has expanded its controller family with new two port external SATA solution for PCI express interface. The products will be available through Cyberstar Infocom. The Adaptec 1225SA provides various features designed specifically for small office and home office (SOHO) networks relying on external direct attached storage (DAS) for professional workstations and entry servers.

According to the release, the Adaptec 1225SA RAID controller installs in any available PCIe slot and offers two external SATA ports with speeds up to 3 gigabits per second. The card is equipped with Adaptec Storage Manager (ASM) software for improved management and offers RAID levels 0, 1, JBOD and eSATA hot-swap compatibility, enabling users to move drives or volumes from one system to another.

As a part of its marketing strategy, Cyberstar will conduct focussed dealer end-customer training programmes on advantages of implementing new two port external SATA solutions into their unified storage architectures.

Raj Rathi, founder and CEO, Cyberstar Infocom, said, “We are very bullish on the prospects of the Adaptec 1225SA that offers superior performance external storage connectivity and helps the consumers to enjoy the fastest transfer rates.”
