Winchester Systems Improves Speed of RR2P Rugged Removable Canister Disk Arrays
Move 20 TB From Plane to Ground in 2 Minutes
(firmenpresse) - BILLERICA, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/19/12 -- Winchester Systems Inc., a leading data storage solutions provider, announced a significant speed improvement to their Rugged Removable Canister disk arrays designed for mobile use aboard planes, ships and ground transports. These "purpose built" products are used primarily by the US military and emergency responders. The product enables authorized personnel to quickly remove reconnaissance and surveillance images and video from the RAID disk array and immediately plug it into a ground station for analysis -- and insert new canisters into the mobile asset for rapid redeployment.
In capturing high resolution imaging data, recording speed is of the essence. Accordingly, the company recently made improvements to the product to increase the write data rate by 29% to 2,000 MB per second and the read data rate by 10% to 2,200 MB per second.
The RR2P is lightweight 2U RAID disk array chassis made of milled aluminum, weighting only 48 pounds with hard disk drives and 44 pounds with Solid State Disks in two removable canisters. Each canister holds ten compact 2.5" HDDs or SSDs with capacity to 1 TB each and total system capacity to 20 TB. All ten disks in a canister are carried as a single unit by a handle for safe transport and locks into place with a positive locking lever. Reliable canister connectors are military grade for field usage and are mounted to float to protect against shock and vibration. Designed for harsh environments, each canister includes an easy-to-replace filter that protects against ambient dust and humidity.
The RR2P is a configurable Fibre Channel 8 Gb hosted product, with two ports per canister, that offer options including AC or DC power supplies variety of disk and SSD storage alternatives. It is conveniently only 17" wide to mount with a variety of standard rackmount rails and offers optional base plate mounting screws for secure lockdown to the vehicle.
