As more high-density servers come online,
businesses are increasingly requiring advanced
RAID functionality in a small form factor.
This is exactly the need addressed by the new
Adaptec 2130SLP & 2230SLP cards. These
controllers provide a number of advanced
features for entry-level and mid-range
servers, such as full capacity utilization of
mixed size drives.

Ultra320 SCSI: Faster and smarter
The Adaptec 2130SLP & 2230SLP RAID
controllers feature Ultra320 SCSI and data
transfer rates up to 320 MByte/sec on each
channel. This performance increase is especially
significant in storage systems performing large
data transfers or connecting many drives on a
single channel. Adaptec developed a new
technology called Seamless Streaming™ to
optimize Ultra320 performance, maximizing
bus utilization and minimizing command
overhead as multiple commands are
transferred in a single connection and at
higher speeds.

Exclusive mixed-capacity drive use
Adaptec’s exclusive optimized disk utilization
allows the full available capacity to be used
of all drives attached to the controller, even
if the drive sizes are different. Both cards
also make it possible to create multiple arrays
from a single set of drives. Online Capacity
Expansion and RAID Level Migration allow
users to adjust ever-changing storage needs
on the fly. This powerful combination of
features maximizes system resources and
reduces downtime.

Storage management made easy
Intuitive Adaptec Storage Manager™ software
simplifies RAID configuration and manage-
ment. IT administrators can remotely config-
ure, manage, and monitor RAID subsystems
through a user-friendly password-protected
client or browser-based interface, providing
increased flexibility and efficiency.

Choosing between the
Adaptec 2130SLP & 2230SLP
Both the Adaptec 2130SLP & 2230SLP
support a range of operating systems
(Windows® XP/NT®/2000, Linux, NetWare,
and Caldera) and RAID configurations (0, 1,
10, 5, 50, and JBOD). Both also feature a low-
profile MD2 form factor, and accommodate an
optional battery backup module (ABM-400)
for 72-hour cache memory protection.

For single-channel RAID control in high-
density servers and workstations, both
conventional and rackmount, the Adaptec
2130SLP is an excellent choice. For installa-
tions requiring a dual-channel controller, or
faster processing power, choose the Adaptec
2230SLP. Both cards are Intel EM64-T and
AMD-64 ready.
