Enterprise-Class RAID Reliability
SuperTrak EX SAS and SATA RAID controllers are stable, robust platforms that can be trusted. Built on a leading edge hardware design, supported by a RAID stack developed and refined over more than 15 years, they incorporate a single chip solution for optimized reliability with 512MB data cache onboard, an available 72 hour battery backup module, and a x8 PCI-Express interface to the host.

The SuperTrak EX line of SAS and SATA RAID controllers, with RAID 5 and RAID 6 support, protects your mission critical data by delivering the data protection features you expect from leadership solutions. Features such as global and dedicated hot spares, RAID level migration, media patrol, read check table, and bad sector remapping offer the most reliable data protection solutions in their class.

Easy Management
The new web-based Promise Array Manager Professional (WebPAM™ PRO) makes SuperTrak RAID Controllers easy to manage for both Windows and Linux environments through the browser-based graphical user interface to create, delete, expand, and convert disk arrays from anywhere in the world.

In the event of a drive or data channel failure, WebPAM PRO supports an array of notification options including text and email, as well as an audio alarm located directly on the STEX RAID controller.

SAS RAID Controllers for Performance Hungry Storage
The SuperTrak SAS and SATA RAID controllers are high-performance solutions, delivering reliability to demanding data-intensive applications such as tiered storage environments (disk-to-disk or disk-to-disk-to-tape backup), security and surveillance, video editing, and digital content creation.
Support for both SAS and SATA 3Gb/s drives on the same controller maintains configuration optimization for performance based on the characteristics of SAS and SATA drives available today
