Double Your Storage Capacity and Maximize Write Performance for PCIe 3.0 x16 Host Connectivity Over 120TB @ 14,000 MB/S! HighPoint high port count (HPC) NVMe RAID controllers are ideal for professional applications that require a small-footprint, mass-storage NVMe solution that can take full advantage of the PCIe 3.0 x16 transfer bandwidth. This performance-focused NVMe RAID architecture ensures that up to x4 lanes can be assigned to each device channel, and deliver up to 14,000 MB/s of transfer performance – ideal for professional media workstation and server environments designed to support a wide range of editing, rendering, capture and streaming applications. HighPoint HPC U.2 NVMe Controllers allow customers to complete saturate the PCIe 3.0 bus-bandwidth with write performance over 14,000MB/s, while simultaneously supporting up to 120TB of storage capacity! Massive Storage Capacity Each high port count RAID controller features eight independent M.2 or U.2 channels, and can support from 16TB up to 120TB of storage capacity configured to act as independent drives or into one or more RAID 0, 1 or 10 arrays. No other NVMe controllers in today’s marketplace can match the massive storage capability, blazing fast transfer rates or flexibility in such a compact package. Truly Platform Independent NVMe RAID Solution HighPoint high port count series NVMe RAID controllers are truly independent NVMe storage solutions. Unlike most NVMe devices in today’s marketplace, which are tied to a specific hardware platform or brand of SSD or motherboard, SSD7000 series controllers do not require a hardware environment with Bifurcation support, or any specialized software released by SSD manufacturers; any AMD or Intel motherboard with a dedicated PCIe 3.0 x16 slot can now support more than 120TB of NVMe storage, and experience sustained write performance in excess of 10GB/s via a single compact PCIe device. Flexible, Multi-Stage Cooling Solution The SSD7180 and SSD7184 employ our new multi-stage cooling solution that combines an anodized aluminum heatsink with a built-in low noise fans This design ensures the NVMe chipset and RAID componentry remain cool under heavy load while minimizing the risk of distraction in the work environment. Comprehensive OS Platform Support Linux Distributions: A dedicated team of engineers proactively monitors and updates support for all major Linux distributions to ensure our high port count NVME RAID controllers are compatible with the latest releases of CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian. Our innovative Auto-Compile feature was designed to streamline Linux installation and upgrade procedures, and eliminates the need for user intervention. Auto Compile is now embedded directly into our open-source driver packages. In addition, each driver release is accompanied by a comprehensive Installation Guide, which includes step-by-step setup walk-throughs, handy troubleshooting tips, and Technical Support resources. macOS Ready: The 2019 Mac Pro is the platform of choice for many media professionals. Our high point count NVME RAID controllers are fully compatible with Apple’s latest Mac Pro workstation platform, and are macOS 10.15.x ready. Windows Platforms: HighPoint high-port count NVMe RAID controllers are fully compliant with current Windows operating systems including Windows 10 and Server 2019. Comprehensive NVMe RAID Management - Your Choice – Graphical or Text-only interfaces When it comes to maintaining critical storage configurations, each customer has specific needs and preferences. Both management interfaces share universal layouts across all major operating systems, and can be administered locally or remotely via an internet connection. The Web RAID Management Interface (WebGUI) is a simple, intuitive web-based management tool and is ideal for customers who are new to RAID technology. The CLI (command line interface) is a powerful, text-only management interface designed for advanced users and professional administrators. Comprehensive user guides are available for both interfaces are available from each controller’s Software Updates webpage. Both interfaces were designed to streamline NVMe Storage Management. Customers can easily track TBW (Terabytes Written) and the temperature of each individual NVMe SSD, ensure the SSD7000 controller is using the fastest available PCIe slot, configure an event log with email notification, and monitor the status of critical RAID configurations in person or remotely via an internet connection. HighPoint High Port Count NVMe RAID Controller Series SSD7180 - 8x PCIe 3.0 x4 SFF-8643 ports (low profile) The SSD7180 is the industry’s first 8-Channel dedicated PCIe 3.0 x16 U.2 NVMe RAID controller for macOS, Linux and Windows platforms. The industry standard SFF-8643 connectors are compatible with a wide selection of 2.5” form-factor server chassis available in today’s marketplace and accept cables of varying length, which allow the SSD7180 RAID controller to be easily integrated into custom built hardware environments.
