Features & Benefits
Key Features
Accelerated Business Applications
The use of high-performance SSDs optimizes storage density and minimizes storage space requirements. An intelligent secondary cache accelerates read-intensive workloads, optimizes IT, and reduces costs. This approach ensures cost-effective performance, efficient resource utilization, and simplifies infrastructure management for optimized operations.
Uninterrupted Availability
The system is designed to ensure high availability of over 99.9999% and guarantees data integrity, security, and protection against silent data corruption. Online management allows for changes and maintenance to be performed without interrupting applications. Proactive monitoring scans media and monitors drive status to ensure continuous operation and robust data protection.
Flexible Configuration Options
Enables automation and agility required in the DevOps-based IT revolution. The ultra-dense system shelf for 60 drives supports up to 720 TB in just 4U and is ideal for environments with large data volumes and limited footprint; with 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch drives. Industry-leading performance and space efficiency for up to 60% less rack space. Highly efficient power supplies can reduce energy and cooling requirements by up to 40%.
Environmentally Friendly Performance
Environmentally friendly high-performance storage solution with an eco-conscious design, sustainable packaging, and reduced power consumption. Low cooling requirements and space-saving design minimize environmental impact while optimizing performance and efficiency.
