JMR Electronics announced the availability of PCIe attached RAID storage systems developed in cooperation with Agilent Technologies Inc. JMR is the recommended archiving solution for the new Agilent PXI Vector Signal Analyzer products. These new storage products are part of the JMR BlueStor Storage Solutions family--popular in the video streaming, production, post-production, surveillance markets and are well known for outstanding data integrity even at very high transfer rates.

"It is our goal to provide Agilent's customers with the best test experience possible," said Carla Feldman, Marketing Manager of Agilent's Modular Product Operation. "Working with an experienced RAID vendor such as JMR, we can customize and optimize our customer's experience by vigorously testing and integrating our test tools with RAID systems, enabling easy set up and execution for long gapless streaming data capture functionality."

The new custom configured units introduced include models AGIL-G4-8T, AGIL-G4-16T and AGIL-G4-32T, with formatted storage capacities of 8TB, 16TB and 32TB respectively. Additional models using solid state drives with higher IOPS and reduced capacity are also available. All models are 3U rack-mount, enterprise-class storage systems that are directly connected to the Agilent PXI M9392A Vector Signal Analyzer via a single x8 PCIe cable attachment.

Key features include:
    -Enterprise class drives
    -N+1 hot-swappable power supplies
    -Internal hardware RAID controller
    -Internal multiport SAS Expanders
    -N+1 thermostatically controlled cooling systems
    -Universal rack mount kit
    -RAID drivers
    -User-friendly GUI for configuration
    -3 Year Limited Warranty on factory configured units
    -Technical Support from JMR

The BlueStor PCIe Extender RAID models all feature an integrated 5-slot internal PCIe backplane (all slots x8 Gen 2), allowing users to add their own compatible PCIe peripheral devices which will perform as though they were installed in the host computer.

"We have been working with Agilent on this program to provide a high-performance PCIe direct-attached RAID device to compliment their state-of-the art instrumentation, and are very pleased to have such an excellent technology partner," said Steve Katz, VP of OEM Sales for JMR.
