PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Enhancing its position as the market leader in delivering RAID subsystems into the server market, Compaq increases the performance of its SMART-2 Array Controller by increasing the on-board accelerator cache from 4 MB to16 MB. When used with Compaq's Wide-Ultra SCSI-3 internal hard drives, the SMART-2 Array Controller can attain maximum transfer rates of up to 40 MB/s per channel, or 80 MB/s total. Server Support for SMART-2 Controllers is supported on the following systems: ProLiant 800, 850, 850R, 1200, 1500, 1600, 1850R, 2500, 3000, 5000, 5500, 6000, 6500, and 7000 (any PCI Compaq Server).
The SMART-2DH Array Controller continues to deliver the data availability and management features required to increase business productivity and lower the customer's total cost of ownership. When used with Compaq's 9.1-GB drives, SMART-2 Array Controller now supports up to127 GB per controller for a maximum of over 720 GB in a PL5000 server. The SMART-2 Array Controller is based on an Intelligent Architecture which enables truly breakthrough capabilities for managing high performance storage:
On-Line Capacity Expansion:Simplifies storage management by allowing on-line addition of more storage in RAID configurations, eliminating the need to back-up, reconfigure, and restore.
Array Configuration Utility:Graphical user interface, which simplifies array configuration and facilitates on-line capacity expansion.
Array Performance Monitor:Monitors key parameters and provides information for proactive system planning.

OPTIONS:
Add Compaq active SCSI terminator for $18.00 - you need this to terminate old controller connection, if it is not being used. Compaq recommends using active, not the cheap passive type termination.
Add CABLES for your Compaq Installation:
Compaq uses TPO TEFLON STRANDED
FEP TEFLON SOLID is better and faster
20" - PVC GRAY STRANDED - 2 Connectors for hotswap cage = $12.00
20" - TPO TEFLON STRANDED - 2 Connectors for hotswap cage = $14.00
20" - FEP TEFLON SOLID - 2 Connectors for hotswap cage = $18.00
56" - PVC GRAY STRANDED - 8 Connectors for int. 7 drives max = $31.00
56" - TPO TEFLON STRANDED - 8 Connectors for int. 7 drives max = $38.00
56" - FEP TEFLON SOLID - 8 Connectors for int. 7 drives max = $49.00
