Designed for the downloading of software
to small or large quantities of SCSI disk drives, Greystone Peripherals
Inc. now offers the SCSI DataFast as an affordable solution for multiple
SCSI disk drive duplication. As the SCSI interface is widely used among
both IBM-compatible and Apple Macintosh computers, this unit is ideal for
software program loading by all SCSI users.
The SCSI DataFast is designed for duplication of licensed software only.
For small volume applications, the SCSI DataFast can operate as a stand-alone
unit which has five drive ports. Each port supports one drive and data
transfers are copied from a single SCSI master disk drive to four target
SCSI drives simultaneously at speeds determined by the type of SCSI device.
During the copying process, the hardware performs bit-by-bit data verification.
The SCSI DataFast supports the ANSI X3T9 SCSI-2 standard, which provides
sustained SCSI data transfer rates of up to 10 megabytes per second synchronous
(fast SCSI), 5 megabytes per second synchronous (normal SCSI). The unit
also supports fast and wide 16-bit SCSI operation. For SCSI transceivers,
a five-port single-ended configuration is standard; individual ports may
be changed to differential configuration via an optional add-on module.
Firmware that configures the DataFast's operating parameters can be
easily updated without opening the unit's enclosure. Updates can be downloaded
via a standard PC parallel port, or the Host Controller.
For higher volume applications, up to 28 DataFasts can be multiplexed
together by one PC running under a DataFast Host Controller. In this configuration,
all five ports can be copied to in parallel; up to 140 SCSI disk drives
can be copied to simultaneously.
Up to now the high cost of duplication systems has been prohibitive
for many OEMs, systems integrators and manufacturers. The DataFast line
from Greystone Peripherals is the first cost-effective software duplicating
solution that provides the flexibility and power to meet your needs and
budget.
