EcoHBA Delivers Affordable Performance
Selected for its speed and affordability the EcoHBA low-profile adapter for SAS supports dual 12 Gb per second SAS ports. Performance is impressive supporting sustained data throughput to external devices at 4,800 MB per second and 140,000 per second I/O operations per second. Using SAS for direct connections eliminates the cost of fibre channel switches. FlashServers plus FlashDisk with four SAS ports and two EcoHBA boards is an especially economical “SAN-In-A-Box” solution.
Ecological
The low profile of the EcoHBA permits the use of smaller servers like the EcoServer, saving power and cooling. Despite the smaller form factor, performance is exceptional.
Economical
The EcoHBA delivers performance and reliability from LSI Corporation at affordable prices - an unbeatable combination. The use of SAS and direct connections saves money versus the cost of similar fibre channel connections and eliminates the need for fibre channel switches. With four powerful servers and “SAN-In-A-Box” connectivity, this simplified topology can still support very serious departmental requirements.
Systems Integration
EcoHBA combined with EcoRAID and FlashDisk storage and accessories including switches and racks - enables IT managers to obtain an integrated solution from a single vendor that supports the entire hardware infrastructure. IT managers concentrate on the applications and the business value created.
Single Source Support
The entire integrated solution of EcoHBA, EcoServers, EcoRAID and FlashDisk storage and accessories are supported under a single warranty and service contract. This eliminates the finger pointing often found in self-integrated hardware solutions. The standard warranty includes 24x7 call center support and next day on-site service. Four hour response service is also available as an option.
