Adaptec RAID 52445

Windows device driver information for Adaptec RAID 52445

This hardware component is a PCI-Express Unified Serial RAID Controller device which incorporates Intelligent Power Management technology. It is capable of delivering excellent computing performance coupled with advanced security of data transmissions especially for enterprise class software applications. The functionality of the Adaptec RAID 52445 depends primarily on the installation of the correct device driver which activates its built-in feature sets. By using the appropriate device driver this expansion card can adequately provide high input and output transactions based on higher bandwidth processing. This type of technology implemented by its device driver successfully complements the data transfer rates achieved by SATA based drives including those of SAS storage devices. The main processing power of the Adaptec RAID 52445 is derived from its RAID on Chip which is composed of a dual core and ably supported by 512 MB of DDR2 memory dedicated for write caching operations.

In terms of connectivity the Adaptec RAID 52445 complies with the specifications of the x8 PCI-Express which allows for the delivery of more than 250,000 input and output processes using approximately 1.2 gigabytes transfer rate. By supporting SAS expanders this hardware component and its corresponding device driver becomes capable of supporting a maximum of 256 SATA and SAS based devices. Aside from supporting a number of storage devices the device driver is also compatible with numerous mainstream network operating system platforms contributing to its wider deployment. The device driver also supports the execution of a proprietary management software application that is designed to cater to array storage management. The Intelligent Power Management technology implemented by this hardware component and its supporting device driver lowers the operational cost for computer networks. This is achieved by spinning down idle storage devices resulting in lesser cooling requirements and eventually lower power consumption for the active disks.
