<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>HDD</strong> - <strong>SSD</strong> <strong>Controller</strong><br />
AD2SAH<strong>SSD</strong><br />
INTRODUCTION<br />
The <strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>HDD</strong>-<strong>SSD</strong> controller is a special storage controller that can be<br />
used in hybrid mode or as standard mode as a two part SATA III PCI-e<br />
controller. In <strong>Hybrid</strong> mode, the controller enhances the performance of any<br />
ordinary SATA hard drive by the faster speed of a <strong>SSD</strong> (Solid State Drive)<br />
connected to one of the SATA port. This significantly improves the boot up<br />
time of your system as well as the overall read/write performance of the hard<br />
drive. In standard mode, this controller becomes a standard 2 ports SATA III<br />
PCI-e controller that supports up to 6 Gbps with RAID 0 and RAID 1 features<br />

<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>HDD</strong> - <strong>SSD</strong> <strong>Controller</strong><br />
AD2SAH<strong>SSD</strong><br />
FEATURES<br />
• Increase system overall performance using <strong>SSD</strong> while increasing overall system storage capacity with regular low<br />
cost hard drives.<br />
• <strong>Hybrid</strong>Drive mode enables 80 percent of the performance of a solid state drive (<strong>SSD</strong>) on any SATA hard drive at<br />
one-third the cost of <strong>SSD</strong><br />
• <strong>Hybrid</strong>Drive Modes: Safe Mode (Mirrored Protection), Capacity Mode (Cost-Optimized)<br />
• Support <strong>Hybrid</strong>Drive (<strong>HDD</strong>+<strong>SSD</strong>), Hardware RAID0, RAID1<br />
• Port Multiplier Compatible<br />
• Hot swappable - drive can be removed and added without system shut down or restart **<br />
• Maximum 6Gbits/sec*<br />
• Supports Native Command Queuing (NCQ)<br />
• Supports SATA III transfer rate of 6.0Gbps, 3.0Gbps, 1.5Gbps<br />
• Install into both standard height or low profile system with included brackets<br />
• 2 LED connections for drive activity<br />
• Includes both standard height and low profile PCI-E brackets<br />
*To achieve the maximum throughput, the PCI-Express slot must be version 2.0 or higher. Older system with PCD-Express 1.0 will limit the<br />
speed to 2.5 Gbps. Performance per port may decrease if both ports are transferring data simultaneously due to the limited throughput of the<br />
PCI-Express slot. Please visit following web page for more information of ExpressCard v1.0 and v2.0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express<br />
*** Hot swapping hard drive has been tested on Windows OS only.<br />
