1.3 EASE OF USE
The RSV-S8 utility offers an easy to use utility for creating and managing your storage. It also supports the
latest SATA enhancements including SATA-II Port Multiplier support, and up to 3Gbit/sec transfer rates on
controllers that support that speed. Creating and deleting volumes is also possible without requiring a
restart of the operating system and rebuilds never require the data to be taken off-line.
Drives can also be moved between controllers without losing the data.
