Install Two 2.5-inch SATA SSDs into a PCIe Card Slot
If you need faster, high-capacity internal storage for your desktop computer or server, 2.5-inch SATA SSDs are the cost-effective choice. Sonnet’s Fusion™ Dual 2.5-inch SSD RAID PCIe card enables you to upgrade your system in a flash, mounting one or two SSDs (sold separately) with up to 16TB capacity in a single full-length PCIe card slot, with no power or data cables, adapters, or mounting trays required.
Great 2-Drive Hardware RAID 0 Performance
Install the Sonnet Fusion card into a PCIe 3.0 slot of a computer or Thunderbolt 3 expansion system and achieve great transfer speeds up to 1000 MB/s!
Still use a Mac Pro® 5,1 tower? Enjoy performance up to 800 MB/s now, and migrate the Sonnet card to the new Mac Pro (2019) to enjoy even better performance.
Disk Striping
Increases performance by interleaving data into blocks (stripes) across two or more drives simultaneously to increase speed.
Fast RAID 1 Performance
Looking for the safety of a simultaneous backup? RAID 1 performance of up to 560 MB/s may be obtained with any compatible computer or expansion system.
100% Redundancy
If primary drive crashes, the mirrored drive will automatically replace the primary drive.
Hardware RAID Controller Onboard
A high performance RAID controller manages the SSDs you install, supporting Fast (RAID 0), Safe (RAID 1), Volume (Span) and, particularly important to pro audio users, JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) configurations, so you can choose the mode that best suits your needs:
Fast
Choose RAID 0 for the best performance.
Safe
Choose RAID 1 for a mirrored backup of your data.
Volume
Choose Span to create a single large volume bridging both drives.
JBOD
Choose JBOD (Just a Bunch of Disks) to work with twice as many audio tracks.
Regardless the mode you select, changing the configuration is easy – with no software to install or jumper blocks to move around, a turn of a switch and the press of a button is all it takes.
Fast USB Speed and Plenty of Power for Bus-powered Devices
Sonnet’s Fusion Dual 2.5-inch SSD RAID card also includes a SuperSpeed USB-C (USB 3.2 Gen 2) port that supports data transfers of up to 1000 MB/s, and provides up to 15W of power to support bus-powered devices—you can connect a fast external drive without installing another card.
Thunderbolt Port? Connect Two SSDs Through One Cable
Got a Thunderbolt connection, but no PCIe card slot? Fusion Dual 2.5-inch SSD RAID card provides full performance and is ideal for use in a Sonnet Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 2 to PCIe card expansion systems. The combo enables you to add two SSDs plus a USB-C port to any Mac or Linux computer with Thunderbolt 2 or Thunderbolt 3 ports, or Windows PC with Thunderbolt 3 ports.
