Balance SSD speed and HDD capacity

HyperDuo provides automatic SSD tiering, moving frequently accessed files to faster SSD storage. This can help balance quick access with the larger capacity of a hard drive.

You can configure a HyperDuo volume with up to three SSDs and one HDD. The automatic tiering feature requires a computer that uses a BIOS.

Choose a storage setup that suits your needs

The card supports RAID 0, 1, 10 and JBOD. This gives you several ways to configure connected drives, from combining storage to using mirrored arrays.

It also supports SATA Port Multipliers. With a suitable multiplier, you can connect up to seven drives across the card’s four ports.

Check your system before ordering

  • Confirm your computer has a free PCI Express x2 slot.
  • Check that your internal drives use SATA connections.
  • Confirm your operating system is supported. The card supports Windows, Mac and Linux, with specific versions varying by platform.
  • Check that your PC uses a BIOS if you plan to use HyperDuo automatic tiering.
