Ci Design Cares About Your Data Integrity

02/08/07

When designing chassis, Ci Design goes beyond the reliability of just the chassis itself. We consider the reliability of the components you put in them. We have taken the next step in building a GREAT chassis.

Rather than compromising your hard drives' data integrity and reliability, we focus on preserving and enhancing them. Ci Design backplanes have been designed to give you that extra piece of mind.

By using the benefits of CI's SAS and SATA backplanes, you can easily secure your server's Data integrity and reduce data loss.

The Benefits of Ci Design's SAS and SATA backplanes
  • In-rush current handling capability (positive impact on HDD MTBF/reliability)
Yes
  • High-speed SAS/SATA traces signal integrity consideration through Electronic circuit design and PCB layout techniques  Enhanced Data Integrity of drives during high speed data transfer.
Yes
  • Power distribution consideration on PCB design/layout (Data integrity + HDD compatibility)
Yes
  • Hot-swap HDD (no loss of Data integrity during removal/reinsertion of hard drives)
Yes
  • Supporting fans from power supply or fan controller board to get stable/clean power supplying to HDDs
Yes
  • Easy user interface at LED support and I2C setting
Piano switch
  • Supporting I2C or discrete LED solution
    - Single chassis solution
Yes
  • Compatibility with major controller cards
Yes
  • Compatibility with SAS/SATA HDDs
Can accommodate ALL SAS/SATA HDDs on current market
  • PCB layout techniques on signal integrity with SAS/SATA high- speed signal ( I/O Data integrity)
Yes
  • Flexible ACT/FAIL LED setting
Yes
  • Power supply filtering on:
    1. Input for backplane
    2. Power source supplying to each HDD
Yes, and apply both in 4P power input and each HDD basis


In computer science and telecommunications, the term Data integrity has the following meanings:
  1. The condition in which data is identically maintained during any operation, such as transfer, storage, and retrieval.
  2. The preservation of data for their intended use.
  3. Relative to specified operations, the a priori expectation of data quality.

Top Quality


Top-quality component and connector will reduce data loss and resist attenuation and cross-talk. That's what Ci's customers benefit from our backplane.

SAS Backplane

In high speed data transmitting and mission critical environment, to protect the data integrity from data loss is the utmost important consideration in designing the backplane.
