Promise Technology VTrak E610f Rack (3U)

4Gb Fibre Channel SAN to SAS/SATA RAID System with Redundant Controllers and SAS JBOD Expansion High Availability Promise VTrak E-Class is a family of intelligent, dual controller, SAS/SATA based storage arrays that fundamentally changes storage economics from purchase and set up to operation and upgrades. Two 4Gb Fibre Channel SAN host interface ports per controller provide a reliable, high-performance SAN based storage. Each standard 3U, 19" rack unit supports up to 16 off-the-shelf 3.5" SAS or SATA 3Gb/s drives. Attach up to four SAS JBODs to deliver 80 drive bays of direct attached storage. 4G Fibre Channel Performance and Reliability SAN technology has revolutionized the way data moves throughout the enterprise. VTrak E-Class joins this revolution by exceeding the performance and bandwidth requirements of even the most data intensive applications. Fibre channel's flexible, mature technology and wide interoperability makes it the first choice for mission critical applications. No Single Point of Failure This enterprise-class, cable-less system design includes fully redundant, hot-swappable controllers, power and cooling units. All system components are constantly monitored using industry standard protocols to ensure continuous operation in case of failure or component malfunction. Dual active-active, failover/failback RAID controllers provide redundant data paths to further help ensure availability. RAID 6 RAID 6 (double parity) delivers the highest level of reliability and data protection in a cost-effective solution. As the capacity of storage arrays increases, so does the risk of encountering unrecoverable read errors with single parity RAID levels. RAID 6 can handle double-drive failures, thereby providing greater protection against data loss. This also dramatically reduces the risk of catastrophic data loss during RAID rebuilds. Easy to install and manage The VTrak line features Promise's embedded browser-based management interface, WebPAM PROe, eliminating the need to install additional software. All VTrak systems on the network can be configured and monitored using a single, easy-to-manage interface through an out-of-band Ethernet port. By using industry-standard management protocols, Promise simplifies integration with third-party management applications. Service and Support Every VTrak is backed by the Promise 3-Year limited warranty with 24/7 telephone and email support (Americas & EMEA). When our support confirms a failure in the field, advanced replacement parts are always available to eliminate down time.
