Compaq StorageWorks RAID Array 4100 Redundant Array Controller

Based on Compaq's sixth generation RAID technology, this redundant array controller adds a higher level of availability previously not found in Compaq storage systems. Using this redundant controller requires software found on SmartStart 4.3 or later (for Netware or Windows NT) and in the Compaq ProLiant Cluster HA/F200 Kit (for both non-clustered Windows NT and Microsoft NT Cluster Server). Utilizing technology developed for SMART-2 family of array controllers, the RA4000 Redundant Controller fully supports Array Configuration Utility, Compaq Insight Manager, Pre-Failure Warranty, and Fibre Channel Host Adapter failover.
