Description

The Infortrend IFT-3101U is a SCSI RAID controller card designed to provide advanced storage management capabilities for systems utilizing SCSI interfaces. This controller features two channels, both supporting UltraWideSCSI2, which was a high-performance interface for its time, enabling faster data transfer rates compared to earlier SCSI standards. It is also specified to support Ultra40 speeds, indicating its capability to handle data transfers up to 40MB/s per channel, making it suitable for demanding SCSI-based storage configurations. Designed for installation within a standard 5.25-inch drive bay, this controller likely includes a backplane or enclosure to house the SCSI drives it manages. Its RAID functionality allows for the configuration of multiple SCSI drives into arrays, offering benefits such as data redundancy (protecting against drive failure) and improved performance through techniques like striping. This makes the IFT-3101U a valuable component for servers and workstations that rely on SCSI storage for critical data and applications. The Infortrend IFT-3101U represents a robust solution for SCSI storage environments seeking enhanced reliability and performance. Its dual-channel UltraWideSCSI2 support, combined with Ultra40 speed capabilities, ensures efficient data handling. The 5.25-inch bay form factor suggests it might be part of a larger storage enclosure or a specialized server chassis, providing an integrated RAID solution for SCSI-based storage arrays.
