AAR2420SAKIT
Serial ATA (SATA) is a point-to-point
connection that delivers full throughput to
each storage device by allowing multiple
ports to be managed with a single controller.
Adaptec SATA II technology delivers data
transfer rates to 3Gb/s while still supporting
1.5Gb/s (SATA).

Adaptec Serial ATA II RAID 2420SA
The Adaptec 2420SA is the second-generation
4-port Adaptec Serial ATA RAID controller.
Utilizing the Adaptec AIC-8210 SATA RAID-
on-Chip (ROC) ASIC, running Adaptec RAID
Code (ARC), the Adaptec 2420SA provides
the industry’s most advanced feature set and
highest level of data protection.

Advanced hardware features
The Adaptec 2420SA connects to a PCI-X
64-bit/133 MHz host interface, and offers
connectivity for up to four SATA or SATA II
hard disk drives. In addition to the integrated
ROC ASIC, the card provides 128MB of
ECC-protected DDR DRAM (256MB
optional) and an optional battery unit. SATA
offers point-to-point connectivity, which
provides independent connectivity for all the
drives, so a single drive failure cannot cause
additional failures.

The industry’s most widely deployed RAID code
Adaptec RAID Code (ARC) includes the
industry’s most advanced feature set, with
standard features RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, RAID Level
Migration, and Online Capacity Expansion.
ARC supports arrays up to 512TB, for full use
of higher capacity SATA drives. Only Adaptec
offers Optimized Disk Utilization, the ability to
create multiple LUNs per disk and use all the
space on dissimilar drive sizes.

Adaptec Advanced Data Protection Suite
The Adaptec Advanced Data Protection Suite
includes a feature set that offers the industry’s
most complete data protection right out of
the box. New data protection includes Dual
Drive Failure Protection (RAID 6 and 60),
survival of two drive failures; Striped Mirror
(RAID 1E), mirroring over an odd number
of drives; and Hot Space (RAID 5EE) which
allows a hot spare while using all drives for
data. Additionally, Copyback Hot Spare lets
administrators designate a drive location as a
hot spare. After a drive replacement, the
controller migrates back to the original
configuration. Optional Snapshot Backup
creates point-in-time copies of an array for
better data backup.
