Adtron I35MB Operations Manual
Rev. 003, PN: 610200094

Introduction
The Adtron™ Diskpak™ Model I35MB with Adtron ActiveRAID™ technology
incorporates RAID-1 mirroring in a 3.5-inch hard disk form factor. RAID-1 mirroring
between two hard disk drives provides data redundancy and rebuild independent
from the host CPU. With both disk drives functioning properly, the I35MB keeps
both disk drives automatically updated. If one of the drives fails, the system
continues to operate on a single disk drive until the I35MB is removed from the
chassis and the failed drive is replaced. When the I35MB is reconnected and
powered up, a rebuild can be initiated on the I35MB concurrent with host activity.
Once the rebuild is manually started, it continues unattended until complete.
ActiveRAID technology significantly reduces the probability of a data storage failure
causing an overall system failure.
