United Digital launches HyperStar Lite
Responding to heightened demand generated by the recent launch of the HyperStar Fibre Channel Series, the company has developed a storage system which still benefits from the same chassis and main components as all other HyperStar products, but removes expandability features and uses a different RAID controller. This brand new system offers an even more affordable option that performs only a fraction slower than its ultra-fast HyperStar counterparts. The HyperStar range has become a must have for performance driven and design savvy graphic arts users due to the combination of its elegant design and class-leading features. The new HyperStar Lite 6116RM is a single controller 3U 16-bay rackmountable Fibre Chanel-to-SATA RAID System and is also available as a 2U 12-bay version (HyperStar Lite 6112RM). We have had an impressive demand for HyperStar but we felt that there was a need for an alternative with the same smart design but less feature-rich and at a slightly lower price. It is bit like buying a Golf GT instead of a Golf GTI. You can hardly tell the difference, whether you are behind the wheel or looking at it from the outside. The HyperStar is available as 12-bay Fibre Channel (HyperStar Lite 6112RM) or as 16-bay (HyperStar Lite 6116RM) and comes with up to 16TB raw storage capacity.
