SCSI SSD 2.5” and 3.5” HotBackup. Dual, Synchronised SCSI Solid State Drive

The Arraid SCSIFlash Disk HotBackup Dual Drive (ASFD-2-HSD) enables the two CompactFlash (CF) cards to work as a mirrored pair providing increased resilience and fault-tolerance. The Hot Standby Drive is available in 50-pin, 68-pin and 80-pin variants supporting 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch or larger 5.25 inch form factors and operates with CF cards of up to 512GB in capacity.

Arraid LLC, the advanced storage systems design, development and integration specialist, has launched HotBackup, a solid state, CompactFlash-based dual drive for replacing ageing and failed SCSI-based legacy electro-mechanical storage systems including hard disk, magneto optical, tape and floppy drives.

Incorporating twin CompactFlash drives, HotBackup enables the two CompactFlash (CF) cards to work as a mirrored pair providing increased resilience and fault-tolerance.

The HotBackup drive is presented to the host system as a single logical drive that will continue to operate seamlessly.

This allows the second CF card to be removed or dismounted for backup over the Ethernet port, giving a full disk image backup without dismounting the drive. The HotBackup functionality ensures that any previously paired CF card, maintains a log file of the sectors written so that it can be used to quickly re-synchronize with the removed or replaced second card to re-establish a mirrored pair.

For making full image backups, it also includes a remote dismount feature which operates independently from the control of the host system to enable any CF card in a mirrored pair to be taken offline with the minimum of operational interruption to the host. An image can be restored to a CF card either by inserting a backup CF card or writing to a CF card over the Ethernet port.

The HotBackup drive fully integrates with Arraid’s Recovery Manager network software which is used for control and configuration as well as network backup and restore operations.

HotBackup is ideally suited for use in process critical legacy computer systems where downtime for maintenance and backup cause major disruption and expense. These are found in a range of industries including telecommunications, semiconductor manufacturing, industrial process control, engineering and manufacturing, power generation, oil & gas, military & aerospace, flight simulation and post-production.

The HotBackup drive is available in 50-pin, 68-pin and 80-pin variants supporting 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch or larger 5.25 inch form factors and operates with CF cards of up to 256GB in capacity.
