 The
XDAS RAID storage subsystems feature breakthrough design
architecture to offer unmatched storage capacities for an
unprecedented price. The expandable
and highly scalable storage capacity of the XDAS
provides dependable storage, high reliability and can be deployed easily via any
external SAS, SCSI or Fibre port thus allowing a seamless integration into any
existing IT infrastructure. Using scalable DAS as a framework for
building cost-effective SATA RAID storage systems, the XDAS offers
a complete scalable storage solution. The Aberdeen XDAS can be
daisy chained to each other to create a massive storage solution
leaping past 1PB (Petabyte)
of storage.
The Aberdeen XDAS-iSCSI, quad intelligent iSCSI RAID System,
is the latest addition to the award-winning Aberdeen XDAS
family. The XDAS-iSCSI offers an instant enterprise-grade storage
solution designed to address the needs of post production and
project studios dealing with high definition formats in need of
quality storage access requirements.
The versatility of the XDAS external RAID storage stems from
the scalability nature of storage array subsystems. As a
scalable storage array the XDAS delivers expandable storage in
excess of one petabyte. Unlike other purveyors of RAID servers,
Aberdeen offers a choice in external RAID storage array
solutions. Aberdeen provides the fastest data transfer speeds
featuring SAS RAID technology via either SAS or Fibre
connectivity. For environments in need of maximum capacity over
transfer speeds, Aberdeen delivers the external RAID sporting
SATA-II 3Gb/s enterprise level disk drives over SAS, Fibre and
SCSI connection. Choose which RAID Storage solutions is best
suited for your environment.
The scalable XDAS series can be configured starting with an 8-bay
2U up to a whopping 24 terabytes in the 24-bay 4U model utilizing
1TB drives. Bundled with an Aberdeen Stirling server,
AberNAS appliance or an AberSAN iSCSI SAN solution, the XDAS delivers additional
scalable storage space of up to 54TB per SCSI channel,
80TB per SAS channel and 126TB
per Fibre channel. Among the
innovative features setting the XDAS apart from the field are host and
OS independence, dual host failover clustering capability and an
optional Fibre channel interface allowing its placement to be
literally miles away from the server. Maximize network attached storage capacity, improve ROI and cost/GB ratio
while increasing overall network performance with the XDAS
scalable direct attached storage solution.

The advanced XDAS RAID storage subsystems deliver incredibly fast
access to storage without compromising data integrity.
Redundant components and dual independent RAID controllers provide
protected storage with unprecedented performance. The Aberdeen XDAS
RAID boasts industry leading data transfer speeds with read
throughput upwards of 968MB/s, thus making the XDAS external RAID storage array fast enough to support real-time, uncompressed,
high-definition (HD) and multiple-stream (SD) video editing without
dropping a frame.
The Aberdeen XDAS-HD video storage solutions can deliver an
industry leading 1700MB/s transfer rate in Dual SAS card
configuration and up to 1180MB/s in single SAS card
configuration. The XDAS-HD is designed to achieve
untouchable performance speeds for high speed file transfers
like high definition real time video editing or
uncompressed 4K transfers.
