 Product Introduction 
This chapter briefly introduces the A16E-G2130-4 iSCSI-to-SATA-II 
storage subsystem. The A16E subsystem comes with four (4) GbE host 
ports capable of large I/O transfers over iSCSI packets.  
Infortrend’s iSCSI storage 
supports network initiators 
compatible with the IETF iSCSI 
standard (RFC 3720) with the 
following functionalities:

Internet SCSI (iSCSI) protocols are embedded in firmware and I/Os are 
rapidly processed via dedicated algorithms. The iSCSI storage is built 
around reliable hardware and sophisticated RAID technologies. I/O requests 
are packaged and transmitted over local area networks (LANs), wide area 
networks (WANs), or the Internet using the existing networking hardware 
and thus the total cost of ownership is reduced. With the help of the 
networking flexibility, the subsystem is ideal for location-independent data 
storage, backup, and retrieval.  
The subsystem delivers extreme performance that results from the combined 
performance of multiple disk drives and the level of data protection unseen 
in other iSCSI storages. Featuring all standard RAID functionalities as other 
EonStor subsystems, the A16E subsystem provides a reliable platform for 
IT operations such as backup, data-mining, or strategic allocation.   
This subsystem features a high-density architecture that supports up to 
sixteen (16) hot swappable, SATA-II hard drives in a 3U-profile chassis. 
The subsystem is powered by a RAID controller board featuring the latest 
ASIC400, RAID6 ASIC as the XOR engine. The pre-installed 512MB DDR 
RAM DIMM module can be upgraded to a 2GB capacity DIMM to support 
complicated applications that hold numerous ID/LUN combinations.
