Description
The product with the Part Number 156986A-02 is categorized under Data Streaming equipment. This model, known as HDD-8266, is equipped with a robust 24-Port PCIe RAID controller, making it highly efficient in managing data across multiple storage devices. It is compatible with both SAS or SATA storage devices, providing flexibility in the choice of hardware used.
Designed to fit in a 2U chassis size, it is compact yet powerful. The default RAID mode set for this device is RAID 0, which is known for its exceptional performance in terms of speed. However, it also supports other RAID modes, including RAID5 and RAID6, for those who require redundancy and data protection over pure speed.
This model utilizes a PCI Express Version x8 interface, offering a maximum bandwidth of 3.6 GB/s. Such high-speed data transfer rates are essential for data-intensive operations and applications. To function, it requires a NI PXIe-8384 device, ensuring compatibility with advanced PXI Express technologies.
Even though it is compatible with Non-x8 PXIe Chassis, it should be noted that the performance might be at a degraded speed in such setups. This flexibility allows it to be used in a wide range of systems without being limited to only the latest models.
It has been announced by National Instruments to be obsolete, yet it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This indicates that while the product may no longer be in mainstream production, there is still support available for users who rely on this specific model for their data streaming needs.
