The Enhance desktop SATA storage array is a PCI host card dependant external disk array systems that accepts multiple SATA 1.5 & 3.0 Gbp/s disks and connects to the host workstation either through onboard SATA port or SATA HBA card with external eSATA port. Depending on the host card, the array box can be configured either as JBOD or RAID, and is expanding storage through the built in SATA or eSATA ports.
		The elegant aluminum polished E4 subsystem is an external 4-drive subsystem that has the host connectivity options of eSATA, Multi-lane, or Port Multiplier. The E4 system comes with four (4) hot-swap drive trays, a removable fan, and backplanes that support both SAS/SATA-II hard disks.
		The elegant aluminum polished E5 subsystem is an external 5-drive subsystem with embedded Port Multiplier board that supports either Windows or Mac. The E5 system comes with five (5) hot-swap drive trays, a removable fan, and backplanes that support both SAS/SATA-II hard disks.
		The elegant aluminum polished E8 subsystem is an external 8-drive subsystem that has the host options of eSATA or Multi-lane. The E8 system comes with eight (8) hot-swap drive trays, a removable fan, and backplanes that support both SAS/SATA-II hard disks.

VMware Certified Enhance’s iSCSI IP SAN Arrays for Storage Virtualization

UltraStor RS8 IP-4 & RS16 IP-4 Series Increase Efficiency, Flexibility, Performance, & Scalability

Enhance Technology, the pioneer in design and implementation of hybrid input/output technology in the storage systems is proud to announce that its UltraStor RS8 IP and RS16 IP Series iSCSI storage arrays have passed VMware's Certification Program for VMware ESX Server 3.5. The combination of VMware’s storage virtualization and Enhance Technology’s Quad GbE iSCSI Enterprise RAID protected Storage systems allow Enhance users to make the best use of their existing storage to improve resource utilization. VMware allows IT customers various benefits such as less energy consumption, simplify management, and flexible & scalable network storage environment for enterprise & SMB.   As the leader in server virtualization, VMware provides users for saving overall cost by its green nature with fewer servers required, reducing downtime and energy usage, increase flexibility and the efficiency of the storage subsystems. The efficient setup of using VMware ESX server along with the Enhance Tech UltraStor RS16 Storage Array will directly contribute to savings on IT operating cost. VMware ESX 3.5 enables multiple virtual machines to run simultaneously on a single server, and it can isolates each virtual machine from its host and other virtual machines leaving them unaffected when an application in a virtual machine crashes. VMware supports a variety of operating systems for use on most of the applications and its VMotion feature also provide live migration of virtual machines in the case of unexpected computer failure event providing a robust server and network environment. RS8 IP-4 RS16 IP-4 Enhance Technology’s UltraStor RS8 IP-4 and RS16 IP-4 iSCSI SAN Arrays feature industry-leading performance on Intel IOP platform with quad channel GbE iSCSI ports and throughput of up to 400MB/sec. The UltraStor RS8 IP-4 and RS16 IP-4 are powered by Intel Xscale IOP342 processor supporting both the high-performance SAS and high-capacity SATA drives. With the capability of expanding to four (4x) more UltraStor RS16 JS SAS JBOD Arrays through a built-in SAS JBOD expansion port, the UltraStor RS8 IP-4/RS16 IP-4 storage solutions can be expanded to a total capacity of 120TB using the latest 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda HDDs. With the implementation on green technologies, such as, auto disk spin-down and 80 plus dual-redundant power supply, Enhance Technology strives to achieve high power efficiency while minimizing total operating costs. With the VMware certification, Enhance customers will be able to take advantage of all the excellent features provided by the ESX servers in the virtualized computing environment with a peace of mind.

Enhance Technology, one of the fastest growing data storage companies in the US, has crossed another milestone in enhancing the performance of its storage devices with the newest 1.5 TB hard disk. Enhance Technology is the pioneer in the design and implementation of hybrid I/O technology in storage. Coupled with innovative and affordable storage solutions, Enhance Technology offers unparallel support to meet with our customer¡¦s demands and needs.
As Hard Disk manufactures continue to develop higher capacity hard disk at lower cost per GB for storage, the 1.5TB hard disk is becoming more mainstream as we speak. Enhance Technology works closely with major hard disk manufactures including Seagate, Hitachi, and Western Digital. As a leader in data storage subsystems, Enhance Technology was among the first group of technology partners to receive the new 1.5TB HDD when it was released. Based on the laboratory test, the new Seagate 1.5TB hard disk (Barracuda 7200.11) tested with Enhanced UltraStor RS8-SS RAID storage system yields an impressive 20 percent Read/Write performance increment on RAID 0 array and provides 50 % more storage capacity than the previous 1TB hard disk model.
