What is Zero Channel RAID?
A type of RAID implementation in which a PCI RAID controller is designed to use the on-board SCSI channels of a motherboard to implement a cost-effective Hardware RAID solution. The following are the two standards that enable such a design.
RAIDport - Adaptec Standard (ARO-1130xx series)
RAIDport connector "behind" a PCI slot
SISL (System Interrupt Steering Logic) - Industry Standard
A dedicated PCI slot with SISL implementation
- Mylex AcceleRAID 200 series
- AMI MegaRAID Express762 series
RAIDIOS - Intel RAID I/O Steering Specification
- Supported on PCI or PCI-X bus technologies
- Supported on most Adaptec chipsets
