SCSI Drives

Red Rock specialize in supporting legacy SCSI systems that use SCSI hard drives, SCSI SSDs (solid state drives), SCSI floppies, SCSI magneto optical (MO) drives and SCSI PC cards that are obsolete and cannot be replaced. We have proprietary FPGA based technology that we developed for use on our VME boards and has been honed over the years to provide maximum capability with a wide range of SCSI systems. We can analyze, troubleshoot, and provide custom firmware solutions for difficult SCSI systems.

We replace a range of obsolete drives. Please check out our list of drives we replace if you're looking for a replacement drive and we will build a custom solution for you.

VME and cPCI Storage

Red Rock offer a range of VME and cPCI storage cards for use in legacy applications. These typically use 1.8” SATA drives and Compact FLASH modules to provide fixed and removable storage options in 3U and 6U form factor. The storage cards can be accessed via a range of interfaces including SATA, SCSI or USB. Capacities up to 4TB are available, with optional secure erase, purge and drive destroy. We can also combine fixed/removable SATA storage with a DVD drive in single 6U slot.
