| Auto
switch cache policy and Auto shutdown |
When a RAID
controller detects conditions exceeding preset thresholds,
the following actions are initiated to protect the hardware:
Cached data is automatically flushed
and the arrays caching mode switches from write-back
to write-through mode.
If conditions persist past the preset
period of time, auto shutdown of the controller will commence.
All thresholds associated with this mechanism are user
configurable and, once a subsystem manager restores the
normal operating conditions, the caching mode reverts
from write-through to write-back mode.

| Intelligent
Drive Handling |
If two bad
blocks occur on two member drives of an array, the integrity
of the stored data is endangered. Media Scan, Infortrends
innovative intelligent drive handling function, retrieves
data from the damaged sectors. Media Scan handles low quality
drives in both the degraded mode and during the rebuild
process. For additional data security, other intelligent
drive management features include the transparent resetting
of non-responsive hard drives, power-failure management,
and bad-drive handling during LD expansion.
