PM2865U3 Technical Specifications
MM-0516-1299
Expansion Modules
BB4060 Battery Backup
Module adds battery backup
capability for protecting data
in cache memory for up to
72 hours (using a single
16MB SO-DIMM).
SX4065U3 and SX4065F Channel Expansion
Modules add one (SX4065U3-1) or two
(SX4065U3-2) additional Ultra160 SCSI channels
to any SmartRAID VI SCSI
controller, supporting up
to 60 SCSI devices from a
single PCI slot. Add one
Fibre Channel port to any
single channel SmartRAID VI
controller with the SX4065F.
DM4070 ECC SDRAM SO-DIMMs provide 32MB
(DM4070-32) or 64MB (DM4070-64) of high-speed
disk cache for PM2865U3 controllers, plus
ECC technology for data integrity.The
PM2865U3 controller also accepts
industry-standard 32MB or 64MB
144-pin SDRAM SO-DIMMs.
