Double Speed Ahead!

The CalDigit HDPro-24 is a blazing fast 24 drive hardware RAID solution, with support for 24 SATA-II 3G drive modules.

The HDPro-24 provides hardware RAID 0,1,5,6,50,60 and enhanced JBOD support. Sustained speeds of over 1,600 MB/s* can be achieved with RAID 50 protection.

Dual hardware RAID controllers feature a next generation Intel XScale RAID engine, accompanied by high speed, upgradeable ECC cache. The HDPro-24 is ideal for use with the CalDigit SuperShare SAN solution or massive media files.

With blazing fast speeds, using a direct connect external PCIe connection, the HDPro-24 is made to run 24/7, with no downtime.

Hardware RAID Built to Run
The HDPro-24 is a 100% hardware RAID solution. The HDPro-24 features dual RAID controllers with Intel XScale processors to accelerate RAID performance and provides support for multiple RAID levels. By utilizing this advanced technology, the CalDigit HDPro-24 provides a powerful solution for professionals. Digital media, especially high data rate video, makes your system work harder during capture and playback. With the ability to edit and playback uncompressed 4K footage, at super speeds with no dropped frames, the HDPro-24 offers a true editing solution.
The HDPro-24 is designed to run without down time. With it's dual RAID controllers with cache battery backup, 3 hot swappable load bearing power supplies and 2 hot swappable ambient temperature controlled smart fans, the HDPro-24 is prepared for the long haul. These components can even be replaced without the use of tools.

Direct Connect
The HDPro-24 uses a direct connection to the extremely fast PCIe bus found in modern workstations and servers. Throughput is up to 20 Gbps with no delay, making the HDPro-24 about 5 times faster than traditional fibre channel solutions. This connection makes the HDPro-24 extremely fast, providing a sustained throughput of over 1,600 MB/s with RAID 50 protection. A secure connection is also important, especially when it comes to transferring valuable data. The HDPro-24's PCI express cable has a substantial connection for added strength and long-term protection as well as performance. The secure latch will also prevent the cable from being pulled out accidentally and ensure workflow is uninterrupted.

Generous Capacity
The CalDigit HDPro-24 uses SATA II 3Gb drives in combination with upgradeable DDR2, ECC-protected SDRAM. This results in performance that meets the needs of the most demanding video and content creation software. Each 7200-RPM SATA II hard drive connects to a dedicated SATA channel, eliminating bottlenecks and maximizes the 3 Gb/s native SATA II connection. The HDPro-24 is a high performance storage solution with capacities that start from 24TB.

Smart & Manageable
Each HDPro-24 features an environmental processor that monitors and manages all aspects of the system, such as the hard drives, RAID arrays, controllers, controller cache, fans, temperature, power supplies and enclosure conditions. In the event of a problem the HDPro-24 is capable of sending out email notifications. The HDPro-24 comes with RAID Shield, CalDigit's powerful and easy to use RAID administration software.
RAID Shield is capable of building multiple RAID sets on the fly with a variety of options such as: cache sizes, capacities, slices, a logical unit number, RAID Shield is entirely based on the TCP/IP architecture. This means that each HDPro-24 can be monitored and managed from anywhere on the Intranet. Once setup, RAID Shield provides at-a-glance monitoring for multiple HDPro-24 systems either locally or remotely.

Visual Aid
Quickly monitoring the status of the HDPro-24 is easy with CalDigit's intuitive LED indicator lights and LCD monitor. The HDPro-24 utilizes the LCD screen to provide detailed information about temperature, fan RPM and hard drive health, so you are always in the know. The HDPro-24's indicator lights are conveniently located on the front panel of the enclosure. With just a glance, the user can easily monitor the status of the HDPro-24. There is also an audible alert signal any system alert, as well as email notification.
