The Bosch Digital Video Storage Array (DVSA) Lite series
is built for the security industries most demanding digital
video storage applications, providing high capacity,
unlimited flexibility and unmatched reliability.

Functions
Bosch DVSA satisfies the ever increasing demands of
CCTV for video – high speed recording, high performance
playback, uninterruptable reliability and massive
capacities. With complete RAID 5 protection and SATA -II
hard drives, it is ideally suited for when the highest level
of data availability is demanded.
The “Lite” models are fully featured RAID 5 disk arrays
with a single SCSI U-320 interface (no loop-through for
cascading supported). With the focus on non stop
reliabillity all critical components, including the drive trays
and cooling modules are hot-swappable within the
cableless modular chassis.
In the event of a failure, the Bosch Digital Video Array
sounds an audible alarm to notify a user. The units also
ensure that system managers can be constantly updated
with their status via a choice of channels, including email,
fax, LAN broadcast, SNMP traps, MSN Messenger and
SMS messages depending on the infrastructure in place
and user preferences.

The 8 SATA-II drive channels are routed through the
backplane board to the lockable drive trays installed via
the front of the Bosch DVSA. The completely cableless,
backplane-based design eliminates problems associated
with cable connections and offers a higher level of
serviceability.

The Bosch RAIDWatch Manager is a Java-based RAID
management software that provides a user-friendly
graphical interface for configuring and monitoring RAID
systems. The program is specifically designed to manage
Bosch DVSA.
Bosch RAIDWatch simplifies the otherwise complicated
process of array configuration, giving system integrators a
wide range of convenient Raid management options. The
Bosch DVSA is equipped with an Ethernet port for local
and remote management. The software gives system
administrators fingertip control to instantly deploy,
configure, manage and monitor multiple storage
subsystems at local or remote locations. The “Install
Once, Run Anywhere” convenience saves time and
ensures continuous operation. With WAN/LAN support an
operator can manage multiple Bosch DVSA from a single
workstation.
Note for ordering:
The appropriate SCSI connection cable and the Diskarray
cabinet slider must be ordered separately.
