Maximum number of Recycler units in one network is 200. Each unit has 4 ports, which means you can control up to 800 ports simultaneously with only one Disk Recycler software instance. Recycler system is specifically designed to function with large number of hard disk drives in one network. All ports are completely independent, and failure of one or more hard drives has no impact on other ports. You can even assign completely different tasks to each port in the network, and all tasks will still run simultaneously without affecting each other in any way. Recycler provides high speeds of up to 18 GB/min, ensuring the highest level of efficiency.
