Both controllers have three Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) ports, supporting 12Gbps SAS and Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization technology. The dual path mini-SAS design sustains continuous operations even if an external JBOD cable is disconnected. Up to 7 TL-R1620Sdc units can be daisy-chained via high-speed Mini-SAS HD cables, providing scalability and high reliability for mission-critical storage of file servers, virtualization, surveillance, medium-sized data center, multimedia, and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFailure-resistant with a dual-controller, dual-path design\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConnect the TL-R1620Sdc to a dual-controller QNAP NAS and create a redundant cross loop configuration that provides expansion units with redundant paths to the base NAS and protection between JBOD connections. If one or more paths to the TL-R1620Sdc disconnect, other expansion units can still communicate with the base NAS. This is essential for intermachine data protection and capacity scalability for uninterrupted mission-critical enterprise tasks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eConnect up to 7 expansion units for petabyte-level storage capacity\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe base NAS requires QES 2.1.1 (or later) and either Mini-SAS HD (SAS 12Gb\/s SFF-8644), Mini-SAS (SAS 6Gb\/s SFF-8088) ports or a PCIe-based SAS expansion card.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHighly efficient, reliable and scalable\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe TL-R1620Sdc is powered by a low-power 28nm SAS35x28R SAS Expander and supports 12\/6 Gb\/s SAS\/SATA drives. Both controllers have three Mini-SAS HD (SFF-8644) ports, and each SAS wide port combines four SAS 12Gb\/s channels for up to 48Gbps bandwidth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSupports SAS DataBolt technology, delivers 12Gb\/s speed using existing 6Gb\/s infrastructure\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeaturing Broadcom® SAS DataBolt™ bandwidth optimization technology, the TL-R1620Sdc has an intelligent data buffer for transferring data to drives at speeds that match the performance of the host NAS. Whether the TL-R1620Sdc uses 12Gb\/s or 6Gb\/s drives, the NAS host will transfer data to the TL-R1620Sdc at 12Gb\/s, allowing you benefit from high-speed 12Gb\/s SAS transmission with existing 6Gb\/s infrastructure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eStorage Management\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSimply connect a TL-R1620Sdc to a dual-controller QNAP NAS and power it on. The NAS will detect the drives in the TL-R1620Sdc as newly-installed local drives. By using the Storage Manager app on the host NAS, you can configure and manage the TL-R1620Sdc’s storage space by setting RAID groups, storage pools and snapshots. The TL-R1620Sdc can also be configured as the storage volume of the host NAS, allowing you to easily expand NAS storage to accommodate massive data or backup files.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLeverage the 6Gbps SAS to SATA drive adapter to install 2.5-inch SATA SSDs\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile SATA 6Gb\/s SSDs provide high-performance yet affordable storage, the lack of dual-port support makes them unsuitable for dual-controller environments. The QDA-SA2 adapter allows the use of a SATA 6Gb\/s drive in a 3.5-inch SAS drive bay - providing the ability to expand storage capacity by using cost-effective SATA drives. By installing a SATA drive with the QDA-SA2 into the dual-controller TL-R1620Sdc, the SATA drive can share these SAS dual-port advantages to ensure a high-availability, fault-tolerant enterprise storage environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"icepim-pdf-urls\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.iceshop.nl\/objects\/mmo_92176913_1653051459_6485_27147.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003emanual pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.iceshop.nl\/objects\/mmo_92176913_1653051501_4877_25439.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003emanual pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.iceshop.nl\/objects\/mmo_92176913_1653053778_7805_25321.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eleaflet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"QNAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59801812336721,"sku":"TL-R1620SDC","price":5622.17,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/0036\/4881\/files\/bf292efd9aef7325c2e803b1cf88fe8e.jpg?v=1784033796","url":"https:\/\/backtotheoffice.ie\/products\/qnap-tl-r1620sdc-hddssd-enclosure-black-2535-1","provider":"Back to the Office Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
