New Intel GD31244 PCI-X to Serial ATA controller is the industry first to support Serial ATA II. It’s designed for NAS servers, RAID arrays, and other storage systems. Each of it’s four ports enables up to 1.5 Gbps throughput. It supports Intel IOP321 RAID interface processor for RAID-on-the-motherboard and RAID SRCZCR.
