Arena's EX3 delivers the latest in form and function now. Providing Enterprise-class features and functionality in a low profile, cost correct expandable package, the Arena EX3 series provides unlimited flexibility in an advanced ATA disk-based solution. The Arena Arena EX3 RAID delivers unparalleled storage flexibility, management, configuration simplicity, and storage flexibility, while ensuring maximum protection for your business.

Key Features
The Arena EX3 offers high throughput and superb reliability due to its new Dual PCI on-board chipset.

As all Arena RAID solutions, the Arena EX3 is designed to simplify complicated and time consuming operations. Compared to the conventional disk array, which is designed for experienced IT professionals, Arena comes with the innovative Plug-N-Play RAID. Just attach to your host server and Arena is up and running after following the step-by-step built-in setup program and a user interfaced button on the front panel.

The high availability hardware and firmware architecture automatically detects bad sectors and failed disk drives. When installing a replacement disk or using a hot spare disk, the system automatically rebuilds data without keyed in commands or functions.

An LCD panel displays a comprehensive operating status. Upon drive failure the built in buzzer sounds and LCD panel indicated the failure status simultaneously. With the system on, remove and install hot swap components without interrupting data access.

The Arena series RAID is completely operating system independent and transparent with Windows based OS, Linux, Novell, UNIX, or Mac based servers.
