The Diamond Storage Array offers up to 24 ATA disk drives in a rack mount or floor model configuration.
The Diamond Storage Array is ideally suited for data
intensive applications such as web hosting, e-mail
servers, on-line transaction processing, digital video
editing, medical imaging and digital audio editing.
Virtually any high performance computing system
with a growing need for storage capacity can use the
power of the array.
With the cost effective approach of using ATA disk
drives, you can add more storage capacity as your
needs grow without the costs of other disk storage
technologies. You can also improve the performance
and capacity of the array cabinet as technology
progresses by simply replacing disk drive sleds and
host interface cards.
The array is operating system independent and
supports all popular computer hardware platforms and
network environments.
Three interface options are available: a 1-gigabit Fibre
Channel interface, a 2-gigabit Fibre Channel interface,
and an Ultra160 SCSI interface.

1.0 Product Overview

The array is a fully populated, turnkey solution with
drives pre-installed. It is fully supported by a highly
trained customer service and engineering staff.
The Diamond Storage Array uses Aggregated Data
Transfer Technology (ADXTJ) to merge the
performance of multiple ATA drives to achieve
sustained, full bandwidth data transfer rates. ADXT
provides end users with the power and sophisticated
data control needed to take moderately priced ATA
disk drives, combine them in a disk storage array, and
power them to the performance levels of SCSI or Fibre
Channel disk arrays.
