makes those products a pure hardware RAID
controller and raise the standard to higher
performance levels with several enhancements
including 6Gb/s SATA ports, on-board 1GB
SDRAM memory and high performance PCIe 2.0
x8 lane host interface bus interconnection. The
optional battery backup module provides power to
the cache if it contains data not yet written to the
drives when power is lost. With several port
configuration options including 4 internal, 8
internal, 12 internal, 16 internal and 24 internal,
Areca 6Gb/s SATA RAID adapters deliver the
ideal price/performance and connectivity solution
for entry-level server platforms and workstation.

As storage capacities continue to rapidly increase,
users need greater level of disk drive fault
tolerance, which can be implemented without
doubling the investment in disk drives. The RAID 6
can offer fault tolerance greater that RAID 1 or
RAID 5 but only consumes the capacity of 2 disk
drives for distributed parity data. ARC-12x4 series
SATA RAID controllers with extreme performance
RAID 6 engine installed provide the highest RAID
6 feature to meet this requirement. The controller
can concurrently compute two parity blocks and
get very similar RAID 5 performance.

ARC-12x4 series 6Gb/s SATA RAID adapters
support broad operating system including Windows
8/server 2012/2008/Vista/2003/
XP, Linux (Open Source), FreeBSD (Open
Source), VMware, Solaris (Open Source), Mac and
more, along with key system monitoring features
such as enclosure management (Serial bus &
SGPIO) and SNMP function. Our products and
technology are based on extensive testing and
validation process; same as Areca 3Gb/s and
6Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID adapter field-proven
compatibility with operating systems, mother-
boards, applications and device drives.

The controllers contain an embedded McBIOS
RAID manager that can access via hot key at M/B
BIOS boot-up screen. This pre-boot McBIOS RAID
manager can use to simplify the setup and
management of RAID controller. The controller
firmware also contains a browser-based McRAID
storage manager which can be accessed through
the Ethernet port or ArcHttp proxy server in
Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and more environments.
The McRAID storage 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.

ARC-12x4 internal PCIe 2.0 host RAID controllers are the cost-effective solutions for
connecting 4/8/12/16/24 6Gb/s SATA peripherial devices. The 12/16/24 ports combine
low-cost SATA III and port multiplier chips with low latency for internal storage
systems. The 12/16/24 ports are aimed at high-availability and capacityoriented
applications more than 8 HDDs, such as security systems, surveillance, multimedia
content generation, large-volume data capturing, mail servers and entry-level
database systems.The 12/16/24 ports RAID controllers’ performance is limited by the
port multiplier and HDD numbers. Applications will get the best performance when you
attach the max number HDDs on the RAID controller or rearrange the HDD position to
use max port multiplier chip. They can support directly attached 4/8/12/16/24 internal
6Gb/s SATA ports via 1/2/3/4/6 SFF-8087 connectors.
