Promise SuperSwap 1600 is a 1-bay, internal hot-swappable drive enclosure designed for desktop and tower servers. The drive enclosure supports SAS/SATA data transfer rates of up to 3Gb/s and is also backwards compatible with SATA/SATA II 1.5Gb/s disk drives.* In addition to 3.5" disk drives, SuperSwap 1600 also supports 2.5" form factor (optional accessory kit) thereby giving customers the ultimate storage enclosure designed for their needs.

Intelligent Enclosure Management

Enclosure management is provided via user friendly web-based utility WebPAM, the same management tool that is packaged with Promise RAID controllers. Important status such as array status, fan speed, temperature and power monitor are alerted with WebPAM. LED signaling for disk status and activity are easy to interpret and allows the user to be quickly alerted in case of a disk failure. SuperSwap 1600 is designed to auto-configure ID number for I2C enclosure monitoring interface.

Compatibility, Reliability and Quality

SuperSwap 1600 has been rigorously tested throughout the design phase with Promise RAID controllers to provide optimum compatibility. It is fully RoHS compliant and is backed by Promise's 3 year warranty and expert technical support.
