2. Specication

This section presents a brief overview of the 6Gb/s SAS RAID storage,

ARC-8050. (Thunderbolt to 6Gb/s SAS RAID storage)

2.1 Overview

Thunderbolt technology is a revolutionary high-speed, dual proto-

col I/O technology designed for performance, simplicity and ex-

ibility. Thunderbolt I/O technology lets you move data between

high-resolution displays and high-performance data devices on a

single, compact port. Both data and display signals can be sent

and received at the same time through dual 10Gbps channels. A

single cable attached to one of the ports provides 2 channels able

to achieve the 10Gbps speeds owing both ways simultaneously. A

single Thunderbolt port supports hubs as well as a daisy chain of

up to seven Thunderbolt devices. To improve bandwidth transmis-

sion, Thunderbolt has implemented two duplex (PCIe and Display-

Port) channels into the controller and each channel can provide full

bi-directional performance.

Unparalleled Performance

ARC-8050 is 8-bay 6Gb/s SAS Thunderbolt box with RAID control

capabilities solution for both PC and Mac. Thunderbolt host inter-

face make ARC-8050 RAID box well suited for SOHO group profes-

sional who work at home and or in the ofce. Thunderbolt technol-

ogy developed for high speed data transfer at the speed of 10Gbps

per channel. Thunderbolt port is shared by multiple devices and

can transfer data equally distribute to all connected devices. ARC-

8050 incorporated on-board high performance dual core 800Mhz

ROC storage processor and with 1GB DDR3-1333 SDRAM memory

on-board to deliver true high performance hardware RAID for the

demands of serious HD media creators needs. For example, the

benet for video editor by using ARC-8050 to unleash their profes-

sional creativity work in real-time, with the high-bandwidth allow

large amount of audio and video capture/mixing devices trans-

ferred faster with low latency and high-accurate synchronization

at 10Gbps. Data can be backed up and restored more quickly, so

there’s less waiting for achieved content to transfer or copy.
