AutoMAID™ Energy Saving
Technology
Nexsan's evolutionary AutoMAID (Automatic Massive Array of Idle Disks)
energy saving technology transparently places disk drives into an idle
state to vastly reduce power and cooling costs. AutoMAID delivers the
cost-effecdtive benefits of MAID 2.0 without the limitations of slow
access times and special host software.
AutoMAID is granular to
an individual drive or RAID set and offers multiple levels of energy
savings. AutoMAID is user selectable enabling users to determine the
right level of response time performance to energy savings. AutoMAID is
the first MAID 2.0 architecture that supports VTL, full file format D2D
and standard high performance RAID implementations. |

Key
Points
- AutoMAID reduces power
and cooling costs
- Nexsan’s AutoMAID
delivers the benefits of MAID without the limitations
- Available on Nexsan
Assureon, SATABoy, SATABeast, and SATABeast Xi
|
|
AutoMAID Defined
- AutoMAID automatically
reduces power consumption and heat generation on idle drives
- Trade-off between
response times and power savings are user configurable
- AutoMAID behavior
happens automatically and transparently to host – no software changes
required
- Typical configuration
settings:
- Level 1: Heads
Unloaded
- 15% to 20% savings
- Sub-second recovery time
- Level 2: Heads
Unloaded, slows to 4000 RPM
- 35% to 45% savings
- 15 second recovery time
- Level 3: Stops
spinning (sleep mode; powered on)
- 60% to 70% savings
- 30 to 45 second recovery time
|
AutoMAID Safety
Features
- In maximum power saving
mode, drive spin up is sequenced to reduce power surges
- Drives automatically
wake up for periodic surface scan to ensure data integrity (user
configurable)
- AutoMAID has no impact
on performance if left on in data-intensive server applications
- Only two simple
configuration settings – "timeout" and "power savings desired"
