HIGHPOINT DELIVERS ROCKETRAID 3520 WITH INTEL® IOP341 I/O Processor- INDUSTRYS FASTEST 8 PORT RAID CONTROLLER - SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE FOR ENTERPRISE SERVERS Milpitas, Calif. – HighPoint announces the availability of the RocketRAID 3520 based on the Intel® IOP341 I/O Processor. The RocketRAID 3520 is the newest addition to the RocketRAID 3000 Series of RAID controllers enabling superior performance for enterprise servers by utilizing the benefits of the Intel® IOP341 I/O processor. The RocketRAID 3520 is a x8 PCI-Express 8 port RAID controller with advance RAID levels (0,1,5, 6,10,50) that delivers unprecedented performance for enterprise servers with maximum throughput speeds of over 600MB/s for READ / WRITE operation. The RocketRAID 3520 x8 has the highest I/O’s (Input/Output) per second for storage servers, web servers and database server workloads that require random disk access. “HighPoint is proud to collaborate with Intel® to deliver the RocketRAID 3520 - the world’s fastest internal 8 Port SATA RAID controller utilizing the Intel® IOP341 I/O processor,” said Dr. Michael Whang, President/CEO of HighPoint Technologies. Featuring the high performance Intel® IOP341 I/O Processor, the RocketRAID 3520 takes advantage of Intel’s highly integrated, high-performance system on a chip. “The Intel® IOP341 I/O processor incorporates an energy-efficient Intel XScale® processor, which provides open, full-function IOP based RAID, including enhanced hardware acceleration for the RAID 5 and RAID 6 feature sets,” said Mike Wall, general manager of Storage, Intel Server Platforms Group. The Intel® IOP341 I/O processor assists in delivering the superior performance in the RocketRAID 3520 by offering x8 PCI Express upstream link. This upstream link enables the RocketRAID 3502 to offer the bandwidth needed for moving data bandwidth-intensive applications including media servers, email databases, and application servers. Additionally, the Intel® IOP341 I/O processor includes a high performance multi-ported memory controller to assists in optimizing throughput for READ / WRITE operations. The RocketRAID 3520 includes HighPoint’s propriety technology called TerabyteStream™ boosting performance with an intelligent data caching algorithm that distinguishes multiple concurrent data streams by managing data from the controller cache and TerabyteGuard™ which provides the data protection and reliability needed for enterprise storage environments. HighPoint Technologies is headquartered in Milpitas CA. For further information please call 408-942-5800 or email
