FastStream™ Storage Controllers are high-performance, scalable RAID controllers that deliver data protection for applications in DVA and IT infrastructures including 4K and 2K digital film production, high-definition video post-production, color grading, digital prepress, disk-to-disk backup, audio post, email compliance, data warehousing, data mining and transaction based environments.
The FastStream SC 7500 was designed as a 1U external storage controller that provides high-speed access, data protection and improved performance for SAS or SATA connected RAID or JBOD storage arrays. Featuring a one-button setup wizard that dramatically simplifies installation and configuration for video, audio, database and IT environments, FastStream SC can provide multiple RAID levels with heterogeneous host and storage support.
The FastStream SC 7500 also enables small workgroups to create a collaborative workflow without the need for a Fibre Channel switch to build a Storage Area Network (SAN). ATTO FastStream Storage Controllers provide intelligent solutions offering accelerated performance, simplified management and peace-of-mind RAID protection for all of your critical data.
