ATTO Technology SC 5500E, SC 7500E User Manual

FastStream™ SC 5500E/7500E

Product Features

Collaborative Workflow

• Multiple fibre channel ports

provided by the 7500 give small
workgroups the ability to share
storage without the need for an
expensive fibre channel switch

Instant Data Protection

• Integrate with inexpensive JBOD

storage to create a high perform­ance parity protected solution

Blazing Fast Performance

• The FastStream SC provides the

performance to support 24fps 4K
digital film, 2K film or 10-bit un­compressed high definition video

• Provides managed latency for

low block-sized data transfers
common in database and audio
editing applications

Smooth Data Streaming

• Supports multiple workstations

accessing data over a SAN

• Add additional storage with on-

the-fly capacity expansion and
expand existing RAID Groups
while keeping all data intact

One-click Installation

• One button setup wizards

optimize storage for Video,
Audio, Database and General IT
environments

Embeddable FC to SAS/SATA RAID Controllers

Embeddable RAID Controllers

adds instant RAID protection and

ensures high storage availability

The ATTO FastStream SC 5500E and 7500E are
embeddable RAID controllers that deliver high
performance access to data and data protection
for applications in DVA and IT infrastructures
including: 4K and 2K digital film production, high­definition video post, digital prepress, disk-to-disk
backup, medical imaging, email compliance, data
warehousing, data mining and transaction based
environments.

ATTO FastStream Storage Controllers provide
best of class performance and instant RAID parity
protection to any SAS or SATA storage device;
FastStream allows you to mix SAS and SATA
storage to integrate into a tiered storage solution

ATTO designed the FastStream to take advantage
of the latest in storage connectivity and processor
technology, these two benefits alone provide a
path for OEMs to provide products with the fastest
time to market. By embedding the FastStream SC
5500E or 7500E into a storage product and
private labeling the browser interface, Systems
Integrators and OEM customers can be sure to
lower development costs while creating a portfolio
which compliments existing product lines.

Designed as an embedded MicroATX RAID
Controller which integrates with SAS or SATA
storage to provide instant RAID protection and
advanced intelligence, FastStream RAID Control­lers can be seamlessly integrated into standard
ATX or custom storage enclosures to provide a
high performance storage solution.

The FastStream SC 5500E and 7500E add
advanced intelligence features such as Phone
Home email alerts, real-time performance metrics,
N-way mirroring, global hot spares and more.
Users can add storage as needed, when needed
with the capacity expansion feature. Specific
OEM-only features are available to provide a more
synergistic look and feel to your product.
