<p><strong><br>
Multiple RAID Levels &amp; JBOD</strong><br>
When used with the G-Tech RAID controller, G-SPEED eS can easily be
configured as a RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 or as a JBOD. This flexibility enables
the system to be tuned to the required level of performance and
fault-tolerance necessary to support your application. G-SPEED eS can
also be set up as a software RAID or JBOD when used with third party
port multiplier aware eSATA host adapters. </p>
<p><strong>G-SPEED eS RAID Controller Breaks the 2TB Disk
Capacity Limit on Windows® XP!</strong><br>
Windows® 2000 / XP are 32 bit operating systems with a built-in
limitation that logical disks cannot be greater than 2TB (2048GB). The
G-SPEED eS RAID Controller breaks this barrier with a new technology,
Variable Sector Size (VSS). VSS increases the sector size presented to
the operating system making it possible to now have logical disks of up
to 24TB! No more breaking large disk volumes into multiple 2TB volumes!
