Do you crave speed, but think you can’t afford it? Don’t
limit yourself to SCSI! For less than half the cost of a
comparable SCSI setup, you can install the Tempo
RAID66 and high-performance ATA hard drives into your
Power Mac G3 or G4 to create fast hardware RAID
volumes.
Using the Tempo RAID66’s striping function, your
system can realize significant performance gains over its
original single hard drive — performance perfect for
disk-intensive tasks such as multimedia authoring and
image editing. The dual independent IDE channels of
this card fully utilize the on-board 32-bit PCI Bus
Master for a data transfer rate up to 133 MB/s! Because
the Tempo RAID66 utilizes on-board Open Firmware,
you can even boot from attached drives to shorten your
start up times and speed the Mac OS’
operation.
With the wide range of low cost, high capacity ATA hard
drives available today, there is no better time to take
advantage of this amazing product to enhance the
capabilities of your Macintosh. Sonnet’s Tempo RAID66
card gives you the benefits of a RAID at an IDE price!
