FnL launches BRD6200 'A' Series NVMe AIC RAID Drives

Updated: May 15, 2022

The FnL BRD6200 Drive series has been upgraded with new AIC designs. Now designated as the “BRD6200A” series, each of the new RAID drive models sport enterprise-class features designed for Industrial and Server Applications, and will soon be available with up to 15.63TB of pre-configured DC-Class M.2 NVMe storage.

The bracket side of each BRD6200A AIC drive series drive now features a row of LED indicators and an external port that accepts USB-C monitors.


OOB (out of bounds) RAID Management – BRD6200A Series NVMe AIC drives feature an OOB port (accepts USB Type-C monitor connections) and a built-in CLI (command line utility) which allows users to manage and monitor RAID storage without an operating system.

OOB is a handy troubleshooting tool for professional applications, as it allows administrators to examine and diagnose the status of a RAID configuration or NVMe SSD while the host system is unresponsive.

DC Class AIC RAID Storage Solutions


BRD6200A series AIC drives will soon be available with DC-Class NVMe SSDs. DC-Class BRD6200A RAID drives are ideal for applications designed to run for extended periods of time, such as cloud storage servers, hardware virtualization platforms, databases, and security systems.


DC-Class AIC drives sport Enterprise class features at an entry level price point. For starters, the DWPD (disk writes per day) ratings are considerably longer (400% or more). This allows DC-Class RAID storage to accommodate applications designed to handle 24-7-365 operational schedules.


In addition, DC-class AIC RAID drives benefit from a robust PLP (power loss protection) system. DC Class NVMe media include specialized capacitors that can be used to flush in-transit data (data still stored in the cache) to permanent storage in the case of a power outage.


BRD6200ADC drives will begin shipping on August 27th.
