TeraPac®
TeraPac3® Portable Rugged Hard Drive Array Briefcase The TeraPac3 portable storage expansion system is the most versatile removable hard drive storage expansion system for both MaxVision products and PC systems in general. The TeraPac3 supports 8 removable SATA 3.5” hard drives providing up to 8TB of raw storage and 7TB of Raid 5 protection. These 8 removable drives are connected to the host computer via two eSASx4 supplied cables. These cables connect to special 3ware Raid controllers which have been enhanced with external I/O kits. Raid 0 stripping for performance without redundancy or Raid 1 mirror or Raid 5 for failed drive without loss of data protection. MaxVision workstations use the HDPac family of removable drive magazines. The HDPac4 four drive magazine is used with the MaxPac X Class. The TeraPac3 can support two HDPac4 magazines or a single HDPac8 eight drive magazine. If four mirrored pairs of drives are used, the HDPac2 is available. These can be arranged in combination of HDPacs that sum to 8 drives. HDPacs can be shuffled in the TeraPac3 in any order without loss of data integrity and without concern for mating a particular drive in a particular TeraPac3 hard drive slot. Furthermore, drives can be shuffled within the HDPac magazine without concern for order or loss of configuration. MaxVision HDPac removable Raid magazines can be interchanged between systems using the 3ware family of raid controllers. All information concerning the configuration of your HDPac is encoded on the hard drives so no configuration of the system is required as HDPacs are moved from system to system. A unique feature of the HDPac is the ability to hot swap individual failed hard drives without having to shut down the system or take them off line. This can be done without removing the HDPac magazine. The individual drives can be removed from the magazine without removing it from the TeraPac3 or the MaxPac. Each TeraPac3 has its own self-contained global power supply, cooling and air filtration system. Also included is a customized Pelican 1430 water tight roller case for transporting the TeraPac3 system and cables. Each HDPac4 and HDPac8 hard drive magazine is available with a custom Pelican case which is convenient for transporting secure data separate from the computer or TeraPac3. The HDPac4 uses a custom Pelican 1300 and the HDPac8 uses a custom Pelican 1400. SATA hard drives are available in sizes of 160GB, 320GB, 500GB and 750GB. 1TB drives will be released 4th quarter 2007. All drives in the same HDPac must be identical size and type. When ordering your TeraPac3, you must decide if you need a specially modified 3Ware Raid controller for your host computer. If you are buying a TeraPac3 for your X Class, you must order a 16 channel Raid controller. Do not order a Raid controller as an option with your TeraPac3. If you are ordering a TeraPac3 for your own computer, you have the choice of 8 channel, 16 channel from an assortment of modified 3Ware 9550 PCI-X controllers and 9650 PCIe controllers. The 9650 PCIe controllers provide higher performance.
