Because it shares common features and software with other HP NetRAID products, the
HP NetRAID-1M controller can easily be deployed and managed across a range of servers.
An intuitive, graphical user interface with a wizard feature simplifies setup and allows you to
monitor and manage physical and logical drives, add capacity, and migrate RAID (redundant
array of inexpensive disks) levels on the fly.

With today’s networks growing up and out, it’s good to know you can also manage the

this solution is backed with HP’s world-class service and support to ensure your success.

Ultra3 SCSI has been incorporated into the HP NetRAID-1M controller for greater speed and
flexibility. Ultra3 SCSI doubles the maximum bus transfer rate to 160 MB/sec. The HP NetRAID-1M
controller also supports hard drives and enclosures that use Ultra2 SCSI.
