key benefits |
 |
 |
| »
|
High Performance
Offers superior Smart Array performance, optimized for your PCI-X based ProLiant server. The PCI-X bus architecture offers twice the bandwidth of standard 66MHz PCI bus.
|
| »
|
Modular Cache Design Easy-to-upgrade through a unique modular design gives you the ability to double the on board battery-backed cache capacity.
|
| »
|
Integrated Management Suite All Smart Array controllers share a common set of configuration, management and diagnostic tools, reducing the total cost of ownership by reducing training and technical expertise.
|
|
Improved Data Protection
Managing faults before, during and after they happen.
|
|
Investment Protection
|
Designed, tested and optimized for PCI-X based ProLiant Servers for greater reliability, the Smart Array 5312 controller is ideal for the distributed workgroup server or centralized departmental server and offers complete data compatibility with previous generations of Smart Array controllers for easy data migration and upgradeability.

Distributed Workgroup or Centralized Departmental Servers
Problems and Requirements
- Hardware-based RAID fault tolerance
- Need for increased performance and data bandwidth
- Investment protection in legacy Ultra2 servers, hard disk drives and storage
Typical Use
- Dual Ultra3 SCSI channels allow for the user to use up to two internal SCSI channels for the OS and data storage on the internal hard disk drives and / or up to two external SCSI channels for additional data storage using the StorageWorks Enclosure 4300.
- Consistent with Compaq's LVD strategy, the Smart Array 5312 Controller can be used to mix and match Ultra2 and Ultra3 devices on the same Ultra3 SCSI bus. When Ultra2 devices and Ultra3 devices are found on the same Ultra3 SCSI bus, each Ultra2 device will transfer data up to 80 MB/s, while each Ultra3 device will transfer data up to 160 MB/s.
