| RELDATA Announces the 9240 SAS/SATA Unified Storage System RELDATA has announced the 9240 SAS/SATA Unified Storage System. This announcement closely follows RELDATA's release of its 10 GbE 9240 Unified Storage Gateway. RELDATA's Unified Storage System delivers integrated iSCSI SAN, NAS and WAN replication functions on a single virtualized platform that delivers high performance. The system is easy to implement, operate, and manage, yet delivers enterprise-class functionality. Customers can independently scale disk storage capacity, SAN/NAS/WAN replication storage services, and network performance without application disruption. This "pay-as-you-grow" design eliminates the need for forklift box upgrades – and the downtime it causes – and liberates customers from vendor lock-in and the associated predatory pricing for additional disk capacity. RELDATA's new iSCSI storage system combines RELDATA's 9000 Series Unified Storage Gateway with Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and Serial ATA (SATA) disk storage, providing customers with a seamless, integrated solution that continues RELDATA's unrivaled record of delivering performance that matches the NetApp FAS 6070 at half the price. International Data Corp. projects that SAS drives will overtake FC drives by 2009, with demand for SAS drives showing a 150% increase over the next two years. IDC expects iSCSI SAN revenue to grow at 20 times the rate of FC SAN through 2011. RELDATA customers have the freedom to choose the exact storage that best fits their needs. They can select a turnkey solution from RELDATA with SAS drives for performance-critical applications, SATA drives for price-sensitive environments, or a combination of SAS and SATA drives to address a mixture of application needs. Or, they can choose a Unified Storage System custom- configured by a RELDATA reseller with third-party storage from RELDATA technology partners such as Dot Hill, Engenio, Hitachi Data Systems, Infortrend and Nexsan. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
