Open-E with Starline installation at the Toshiba booth 6.C23

At IBC 2019, Toshiba Electronics Europe will present their lineup of high capacity high reliable Hard Disk Drives for Digital Media Storage at booth 6.C23 in several live-demo showcases. One showcase presents 14 TB HDDs in an active-failover ZFS-based storage cluster for post-production/editing  applications based on Toshiba’s booth partner OPEN-E’s Jovian DSS software and Starline’s Hardware.

New Areca release with the plus of flexibility

There is another astonishing model available through the German general importer Starline. The ARC-8050T3U-8 is not only capable of Thunderbolt 3 with 40 Gbps, but also works with computers via USB 3.1 Gen2. This means that the system also achieves a speed of up to 10 Gbps. So the interesting storage devices are well equipped for fast data backups on different systems. After all, the smart RAID systems from the ARC-8050 series already have Antarctic experience – thanks to the natural scientists Laurent Ballesta and Vincent Munier.

Safe, agile and mobile: ARC-8050T3-6M for the fast reporter on the go

The mobile model from Areca’s 8050 series not only features a practical carrying handle, it can also be powered by 230 volts and 12 volts. This is made possible by a built-in XLR connection, which can even be operated in the jungle via a rechargeable battery pack. Six SFF drives (HDDs or SSDs) can be used for the data to be stored. Like its more stationary tower counterparts of the same series, the ARC-8050-6M also instantly stores huge amounts of data via Thunderbolt 3.

Low profiles and high-end ambitions: RAID Controller ARC-1884ixl-12

The Areca engineers have built a 512 drive managing SAS controller that feels at home on many platforms thanks to its excellent driver support. System integrators will appreciate the low height of the ARC-1884ixl series RAID controllers. This means the storage controller can even be built into 2U rackmount chassis without using a riser card.

A speed of 2300 megabytes per second and an efficiency of eight joules per second

Areca’s ARC-1330-8x host bus adapter offers the fastest connection available when it comes to connecting SAS components: The HBA can handle 12, 6 and 3 Gbit/s as well as SATA data rates of 6 and 3 Gbit/s (per lane). It works with its PCI-Express interface in every computer, workstation and server with Red Hat, Centos, SUSE, Ubuntu Linux variants as well as on a Windows and Macintosh platform. Drivers for FreeBSD and Citrix XenServer will also be available soon.

The Swiss pocket knife among the RAID controllers

Areca’s ARC-9200 RAID head flexibly addresses up to 512 drives, offers a simple RAID set configuration, and has a modular design. The versatile stand-alone data manager only needs one unit in the rack, offers new ROC (RAID on a Chip) 12 Gbit/s SAS features and supports both SATA and SAS drives or SSDs. At the fair we will show you the 4x 16 Gibt/s Fibre Channel model. The product managers have combined it with a 16-Bay-JBOD RDL-JS16S12-R3 from RAIDdeluxe – an extremely robust and inexpensive pairing.

Converting artists for Thunderbolt: ATTO ThunderLink FC 3322 (SFP+) and NS 3252 (SFP28)

ATTO offers the right translator for almost every interface type to bring devices with limited connectivity to the network. As an example of the symbiosis between Thunderbolt 3 (2x 40 Gbit/s) and Fibre Channel (2x 32 Gbit/s), Starline will show the ThunderLink FC 3322 (SFP+) at the IBC. Furthermore, you can see the counterpart of Thunderbolt 3 (2x 40 Gbit/s) on Ethernet (2x 25 GbE) with the ThunderLink NS 3252 (SFP28).
