Introduction

UFS936QS01 is an universal interface (USB2.0/FireWire/eSATA) to quad-SATA bridge device with integrated hardware RAID controller, which supports a range of RAID levels and storage applications targeted at users requiring maximum performance, reliability and ease of use.

UFS936QS01 is designed to connect up to four SATA drives with embedded AES encryption to USB 2.0/ FireWire 800 (1394b)/ eSATA Host.

UFS936QS01 delivers the performance required for servers and I/O demanding applications such as Video-On-Demand, database servers, workstations, high-end desktops, and image systems.

UFS936QS01 allows one HDD failure without impact on the existing data and failed drive rebuild is transparent to the host.
