Areca ARC-8040

The ARC-8040 is the most complete 8-bay subsystem with RAID control capabilities. The ARC-8040 unleashes a truly innovative 6Gb/s SAS to SAS RAID solution for both PC and Mac. SAS 2.0 is designed for backward compatibility with SAS 1.0, twice speed data transfer 6Gb/s than previous available. The SAS 2.0 interface supports both 6Gb/s SAS disk drives for data-intensive applications and 6Gb/s SATA drives for low-cost bulk storage of reference data.

Price available upon request.
