The Mylex AcceleRAID 170 is a RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) controller card designed to manage multiple hard drives in a RAID configuration, providing data redundancy, improved performance, or both, depending on the RAID level used. This card typically connects to a server or high-performance workstation and can support different RAID levels, such as RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and others.
The Windows driver for the Mylex AcceleRAID 170 ensures that the operating system can communicate effectively with the RAID controller, enabling you to set up and manage your RAID arrays through software like the Windows Disk Management tool or Mylex's own RAID management utilities.
