1 Model: ST3, ST3HMEU, ST3RPM, ST3MS INTRODUCTION Built on the same storage design concept from the original Storage Tower, the features more drive bays, bigger power supply and more rooms for mounting more Port Multipliers (PM) or connectors. All these translates into more flexibility and more drives for larger storage capacity to meet your storage requirement. With the combination of various Disk Arrays, as many as twenty one 3.5" drives can be installed into the Storage Tower XIII. By connecting the drives to multiple Port Multipliers, as many as 0 hard drives drives can be connected to the system with a single mini SAS cable, or 4 esata cables using the. This is just one of the configuration examples. There are practically endless customization possibilities in combining 3.5" or.5" SATA or IDE hard drives with various RAID capability. You can actually consolidate all the storage into one Storage Tower and let it serves multiple systems. 98 Junction Avenue, San Jose, CA 953

2 Model: ST3, ST3HMEU, ST3RPM, ST3MS with examples of various configuration possibilities When combined with the Addonics Drive Cartridge Systems and Disk Arrays, the can be turned into a storage system with hot swappable removable drive capability. For the security the Ruby Cipher Drive Cartridge System or Diamond Cipher Drive Cartridge System can be added to protect the data with AES 56-bit encryption. To ensure efficient cooling of all the storage devices inside the enclosure, the Storage Tower IX includes a high CFM cooling fan and vented front panel for a well ventilated interior with superior air flow. The case cover which extends over the top and side panels can also be easily removed to provide easy access for storage device installation and cable connection. FEATURES Great for variety of storage applications - external RAID storage, Video storage, Server storage Thirteen 5.5" drive bays Choice of following storage controllers or bridges for connecting the drives inside the Storage Tower. 5x esata Hardware Port Multiplier-XA Enclosure Version (AD5HPMRXA-E) to connect up to 4 SATA/SATA II/SATA III hard drives to computer via any esata port. Can be configured as RAID, 0, 0, 5, 3, BIG, or Clone mode. (RAID setting is configured through onboard jumpers or included Windows software) 4x esata/usb Hardware Port Multiplier (AD4SR5HPMU-E) to connect up to 4 SATA/SATA II/SATA III hard drives to computer via any esata or USB port. Can be configured as RAID, 0, 0, 5, 5+S, BIG or BIG4 (RAID setting is configured through an onboard rotary switch, no software is needed) 5x esata Hardware Port Multiplier (AD5SAHPM-EA) to connect up to 5 SATA/SATA II/SATA III hard drives to computer via any esata port or with USB.0 port (requires optional esata to USB.0 adapter, AAUESA). Can be configured as RAID, 0, +0, JBOD or as individual drives**. (requires a PM compatible SATA controller for the initial RAID configuration) 5X esata Port Multiplier (AD5SARPM-E) to connect up to 5 SATA/SATA II/SATA III hard drives to computer as via esata port (requires a PM compatible SATA controller). Can be configured as RAID, 0, +0, RAID 5, JBOD or as individual drives**. Multilane bridge (AD4SAML) for the latest SATA Multilane connection to connect up to 4 SATA/SATA II hard drives to system via Infiniband Multilane cable JBOD USB (AD4IDEU) to connect up to 4 IDE hard drives as JBOD ( large combined drive or large com bined drives), or 4 individual drives to computer via USB.0/. port 4 esata connectors for connecting 4 hard drives to system via 4 individual esata cables. 98 Junction Avenue, San Jose, CA 953

3 Model: ST3, ST3HMEU, ST3RPM, ST3MS Accommodates up to 0 3.5" hard drives when combined with various Disk Arrays. Sturdy metal frame construction Power and drive access LED sockets * For esata connection, hot swap feature depends on the controller. All Addonics SATA controllers support the hot swap feature. The can be powered down and restarted to swap out hard drive without rebooting the system. **Independent drive configuration is only supported with controllers with Silicon Image SIL34 or SIL33 chip set. IDE and SATA hard drive can be mixed in the Storage Tower IX. IDE hard drives can be changed to SATA interface with the addition ofide - SATA converter. SATA hard drives can be changed to IDE interface with the addition of SATA - IDE converter.
