The Industry’s 1st Low-Profile, Bootable NVMe RAID Controller for Windows & Linux HighPoint’s third-gen SSD7202 is the industry’s first is ultra-compact, low-profile, bootable NVMe RAID solution for Windows and Linux platforms, and can deliver nearly7,000MB/s of transfer performance from a pair of off-the-shelf M.2 SSD’s. Each SSD7202 controller benefits from our industry-leading NVMe RAID architecture, and can support striping, mirroring or single disk configurations for up to 2 M.2 NVMe SSD’s. 3rd Generation NVMe Architecture Our third-generation NVMe architecture utilizes our Smart-Switching PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface to ensure broad compatibility with a wide range of hardware platforms without compromising performance; the dedicated x8 bandwidth enables the SSD7202 to maximize transfer speeds for up to two M.2 SSD’s. Comprehensive Boot Capability The dual M.2 channels can support individual boot drives or a bootable RAID array. Customers can easily tune the NVMe configuration for maximum performance or security. Robust Linux Support A dedicated team of engineers proactively monitors and updates support for all major Linux distributions to ensure the SSD7202 is compatible with the latest releases of CentOS, Ubuntu and Debian. Our innovative Auto-Compile feature was designed to streamline Linux installation and upgrade procedures, and eliminates the need for user intervention. Auto Compile is now embedded directly into our open-source driver packages. Comprehensive RAID Management Your Choice – Graphical or Text-only interfaces When it comes to maintaining critical storage configurations, each customer has specific needs and preferences. Both management interfaces share universal layouts across all major operating systems, and can be administered locally or remotely via an internet connection. The Web RAID Management Interface (WebGUI) is a simple and intuitive web-based management tool and is ideal for customers who are new to RAID technology. The Wizard-like Quick Configuration menu allows even the most novice user to get everything up and running with a few simple clicks. Experienced users can fine tune configurations for specific applications using the Advanced Options menu. The CLI (command line interface) is a powerful, text-only management interface designed for advanced users and professional administrators. The universal command lines work with any platform, and are shared across our entire product line. Comprehensive user guides are available for the CLI, and are included with the most recent product updates available from the SSD7202 Software Updates webpage. Ideal for Compact Desktops & Workstations The SSD7202 is ideal for PC’s that require NVMe boot performance or an ultra-compact storage solution. The low-profile SSD7202 can directly host up to 8TB of NVMe Storage in a device smaller than your average video card, and can be easily installed into any industry standard PCIe 3.0 and 4.0 x8 or x16 slot. Accepts Most M.2 form Factors The SSD7202 supports most industry standard M.2 form factors including 2242, 2260, and 2280. The first two digits of each form factor represent the width of each SSD, in millimeters (standardized for all models). The remaining digits represent the length of each SSD.
