Product Description
8-Channel Serial ATA II 64-bit PCI-X Card Marvell 88SX6081 Chip, 8 SATA II Channels 133MHz PCI-X Data Transfer Rate up to 1.064GB/S Supports SATA II Rate up to 3.0Gb/s Optional bracket for Low Profile PCI form factor Supports Serial ATA II Native Queuing Co-resides with Motherboard IDE devices ROM BIOS supports Boot Features Supports up to Hard Drives over 137GB Supports Windows NT,2000,XPVista,Windows 7, 2003 and Linux INTRODUCTION The CGS-6081-8X is the most powerful Serial ATA II PCI-X Host Bus Adapter (HBA) to accommodate Serial ATA II devices. Any system with a PCI-X and PCI buses interface can simply add the Serial ATA II devices by simply adding the CGS-6081-8X host adapter and loading the drivers into the system. Serial ATA II is a high-speed serial link replacement for the parallel ATA attachment of mass storage devices. It is backward compatible with the current Serial ATA specifications. The serial link employed is a high-speed differential layer that utilizes Gigabit technology and 8b/10b encoding. The current data rate is 3.0Gb/s (=300MB/s). The CGS-6081-8X supports 8 serial ATA II ports. The built-in Marvell chip provides deep FIFOs, watch dog, 133MHz PCI-X transfer features and complete software driver for major Operating Systems. It is the right choice for a PCI to Serial ATA II versatile devices. SPECIFICATIONS System For 32-bit PCI and 64-bit PCI-X 133MHz Bus Systems PCI Interface Fully PCI-X Specifications 1.0a Compliant Serial ATA II Ports 8 serial ATA II ports which fully support devices up to 3.0Gb/s transfer rate: Supports hard drives greater than 137GB Supports 8 SATA II devices with 3.0Gb/s rate Supports Native Queuing Features Serial ATA II Devices Supports 8 Serial ATA II devices: Hard drives, Removable HDD, and more coming devices such as CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, Tape, IOMEGA, LS-120, DVD-ROM, PD, ¡K I/O Hardware Provides 8 internal 7-pin SATA connectors.
