Areca external SATA ll RAID adapters and ARC-4020Ml/ARC-4030Ml are an external
solution with Multi-lane (Ml)/Min SAS host connectivity for use with your PC or Mac
workstation. Those controllers support up to 8 SATA ll peripheral devices using
multi-lane box (ARC-4020Ml) or Min SAS box (ARC-4030Ml). These external SATA ll
RAID adapters have the same RAID kernel of its field-proven external SATA ll RAID
controllers. The ARC-4020Ml/4030Ml enclosure benefits fault/activity LED from these
adapters serial bus enclosure management signal connector. It is a compact desktop
storage system music for files, enthusiastic gamer and professional audio and video
editor.

Easy RAID Management
The BIOS contains an embedded McBIOS RAID
manager that can access via hot key at BIOS boot-up
screen. This pre-boot RAID manager can use to
simplify the setup and management of RAID controller.
The controller firmware also contains and browser-
based McRAID storage manager that can access
through the Archttp proxy server in Windows, FreeBSD
and Linux environment. The McRAID manager allows
local and remote to create and modify RAID set,
volume set, and monitor RAID status from standard
web browser. The Single Admin Portal (SAP) monitor
utility can support one application to scan multiple RAID
units in the network.

Unparalleled Performance
Unsurpassed Data Availability
Maximum Interoperability
The external SATA ll RAID adapters raise the
standard to higher performance levels with
several enhancements including Intel high-
performance I/O Processor, a new memory
architecture and high performance
PCI-X/Express bus interconnection. The
ARC-11x0Ml default supports 256MB on-board
ECC DDR333 SDRAM memory. ARC-12x2x
default supports 512MB on-board DDR2-533
SDRAM with ECC protection.

The external SATA ll RAID adapters can provide
RAID levels 0, 1, 1E, 3, 5, 6, 10 and JBOD RAID
for maximum configuration flexibility. Its high data
availability and protection derives from the
following capabilities: Online RAID Capacity
Expansion, Online Array Roaming, Online RAID
Level/Stripe Size Migration, Global Online Spare,
Automatic Drive Failure Detection, Automatic
Failed Drive Rebuilding, Disk Hot-Swap, Online
Background Rebuilding, Instant Availability/
Background Initialization, Auto Reassign Sector
and Battery Backup.
