Promise Technology Inc. (Milpitas, CA) released the SuperTrak EX8658 and SuperTrak EX8654 as two additional family members in its latest generation of SuperTrak EX host-based SAS/SATA RAID controllers.

These additions to Promise's SuperTrak EX family are also built on a unified code base that spans both SuperTrak and VTrak product lines and are presented under a consistent management environment. Promise's WebPAM Pro allows an administrator to manage RAID storage attached to the SuperTrak EX RAID controllers or integrated into Promise's Vtrak E-Class RAID subsystems from anywhere on the network.

Promise's SuperTrak EX family of hardware-based RAID controllers offer RAID connectivity options in the low profile MD2 form factor with support for both SAS and SATA hard drives in four configurations (SuperTrak EX8658, SuperTrak EX8654, SuperTrak EX8650, SuperTrak EX4650).

The SuperTrak EX 8654 and 8658 support RAID 5 and RAID 6 and are designed for data protection for entry-level and midrange server platforms running Linux distributions as well as Windows. Both the EX8658 (8 external ports) and the EX8654 (4 internal and 4 external ports) will be available within 30 days.
