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.
The Mac Pro and the previous top-of-the-line desktop Mac, the Power Mac G5, may look alike on the outside—cheese-grater exterior, huge brushed-aluminum handles, and USB and FireWire ports up. Hardware RAID Controller Onboard. A high performance RAID controller manages the SSDs you install, supporting Fast (RAID 0), Safe (RAID 1), Volume (Span) and, particularly important to pro audio users, JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) configurations, so you can choose the mode that best suits your needs. Apple Mac Pro RAID Card is an SAS controller Apple, probably because they don't offer SAS hard drives as standard or add-on for their MacPro machines, neglected to mention that the SATA RAID card. Bootable using a single, independent M.2 startup disk, with the other three M.2 SSDs configured as independent volumes or as a software RAID (SoftRAID or Apple RAID). Mac Pro (2010-2012) requires macOS 10.14.6. Mac Pro (2019) requires macOS 10.15.1 or later. A high performance RAID controller manages the SSDs you install, supporting Fast (RAID 0), Safe (RAID 1), Volume (Span) and, particularly important to pro audio users, JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) configurations, so you can choose the mode that best suits your needs. Fast USB Speed and Plenty of Power for Bus-powered Devices.
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!
The average write performance of a standard off-the-shelf U.2 NVMe SSD is approximately 2100MB/s.
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.
Raid Controller Driver
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.
