that require Maximum Sustained RAID of 5/6 Performance. Robust, Built-In Hardware RAID:
Dedicated hardware RAID 5/6 Engines with 512MB of DDR3 onboard cache allow the RocketStor
6314A to work independently and minimize the RAID operation's impact on the host system or
system loads impact storage performance. DV Mode Technology intelligently manages the flow of
large data blocks and write-back caching to minimize latency and ensure consistent, sustained high­performance transfers for media-rich applications.

Thunderbolt™ 2 connectivity to directly support up to 4 SAS/SATA Hard Drives or SSDs in one or more
RAID storage configurations. The robust bandwidth and simple single-cable design, with a maximum
transfer speed exceeding 1,300MB/s, is ideal for compact workstations and portable computing
platforms.

of preemptive security measures to maximize Storage uptime whenever data is needed. Redundant
RAID 5 and 6 protection shields storage configurations from 1 or 2 disk failures, respectively. The
RocketStor Storage Health Inspector (SHI) proactively maintains the health of arrays by examining
each drive for failed sectors & Dynamically Repair/Remap on the fly to keep storage ready & able.

tracks in-progress writes to preserve the integrity of data in the event of a drive failure or system
crash, and streamline recovery procedures while minimizing downtime. Administrators can initialize
or schedule RAID verification sessions that check each disk member of an array for parity
consistency. If any parity related problems are found, the interface will immediately rebuild the array
to ensure the integrity of your data.
