The AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter is a device used in computer systems to connect to storage devices, such as hard drives or tape drives. In this article, we will go into detail about the features and benefits of this adapter, as well as how it works and what it is used for.
FeaturesThe AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter has several features that make it a valuable addition to any computer system. Firstly, it is a dual-channel adapter, meaning that it can connect to two SCSI devices simultaneously. This is useful in situations where multiple storage devices are required, such as in a server system.
Secondly, the adapter uses the PCI-Express X4 interface, which provides faster data transfer rates than older interfaces such as PCI or PCI-X. This means that data can be transferred between the computer and storage devices more quickly, improving system performance and reducing the time it takes to access files.
The adapter also uses the Ultra320e SCSI interface, which provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 320MB/s. This is much faster than the older Ultra160 SCSI interface, which had a maximum data transfer rate of 160MB/s.
Finally, the adapter uses Low Voltage Differential (LVD) signaling, which provides better signal integrity and noise reduction compared to older Single Ended (SE) signaling. This means that data can be transmitted more reliably over longer distances, making it suitable for use in large-scale storage systems.
BenefitsThe AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter provides several benefits to computer systems. Firstly, its high-speed data transfer rates mean that files can be accessed more quickly, improving system performance and reducing the time it takes to complete tasks.
Secondly, its dual-channel design means that multiple storage devices can be connected to the system, increasing storage capacity and providing redundancy in case of drive failure.
The use of the PCI-Express X4 interface also means that the adapter can be used in modern computer systems that do not have legacy interfaces such as PCI or PCI-X.
Finally, the use of LVD signaling provides better signal integrity and noise reduction, making it suitable for use in large-scale storage systems where data must be transmitted over long distances.
worksThe AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter works by connecting to the computer's PCI-Express bus and providing two Ultra320e SCSI interfaces for connecting to storage devices.
When data is requested by the computer, the adapter retrieves the data from the storage device and sends it back to the computer via the PCI-Express bus. The use of LVD signaling ensures that the data is transmitted reliably and without errors, even over long distances.
The adapter also includes drivers and firmware that allow it to communicate with the computer's operating system and provide advanced features such as RAID support and device management.
ApplicationsThe AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter is suitable for use in a wide range of computer systems, from desktop workstations to large-scale server systems.
It is particularly useful in situations where high-speed data transfer rates are required, such as in video editing or other multimedia applications. It is also useful in situations where multiple storage devices are required, such as in server systems that require large amounts of storage capacity.
In Summary, The AH627A HPE Storageworks Dual Channel PCI-Express X4 Ultra320e LVD SCSI Host Bus Adapter is
