[French célérité, from Old French, from Latin celerit Fibre Channel Host Adapters, ExpressSAS SAS/SATA RAID and Host Adapters and ExpressPCI SCSI Host Adapters, are PCI Express (PCIe) and PCI-X (PCI eXtended) An enhanced PCI bus technology originally developed by IBM, HP and Compaq that is backward compatible with existing PCI cards. PCI and 32-bit PCI-X slots are physically the same, and PCI cards can plug into PCI-X slots. adapters that support Windows Server 2008. "ATTO reinforces its commitment to the Windows market by being the first host adapter vendor to deliver support for the newest Microsoft operating system, Windows Server 2008. Windows users can now choose from a full spectrum of high-performance adapters for SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers. SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. , Fibre Channel and SAS/SATA environments," states Ed Tierney, director of marketing for ATTO. Moving data at express speeds without bottlenecks is ensured with ATTO Celerity Fibre Channel single-, dual- and quad- channel host adapters. The combination of PCI-Express and 4-Gigabit Fibre Channel technologies enables applications such as high-definition video editing, 2K digital production and transactional environments such as databases to take advantage of the 800 MB/sec. per channel throughput performance. Featuring ATTO's exclusive Advanced Data Streaming (ADS(TM)) Technology, large blocks of data move faster and more efficiently on the PCI bus than any other host adapter on the market. For direct attached environments, ATTO ExpressSAS SAS/SATA RAID and Host Adapters and ExpressPCI SCSI Host Adapters provide a range of features including software and integrated RAID support, multiple port and form factor configurations and performance levels enough to handle the most demanding applications such as 2K and 4K film, multiple layers of complex, uncompressed real-time effects, and high-definition video editing. Windows Server 2008 is also supported by ATTO Express Power Center software - a unique Windows-based software utility that maximizes productivity by delivering exceptional striping Interleaving or multiplexing data to increase speed. See disk striping. striping - data striping performance across single and multiple RAID arrays for attached storage applications. Express Power Center shifts productivity into high gear. With ATTO's Smooth Data Optimization (SDO SDO Service Data Object SDO Solar Dynamics Observatory (satellite) SDO Software Delivery Optimization (Borland) SDO Sub Divisional Officer (india) [TM]) Technology, read and writes are delivered at blazing-fast speeds without interruption. Built-in intelligence automatically manages transfer requests resulting in increased throughput performance. Streams of video can now be efficiently striped across RAID arrays without interruption and large blocks of data transfer at lightning speeds. Using the intuitive GUI (Graphical User Interface) A graphics-based user interface that incorporates movable windows, icons and a mouse. The ability to resize application windows and change style and size of fonts are the significant advantages of a GUI vs. a character-based interface. with one-click installation, stripe groups can be quickly and efficiently managed.
