Designed to meet the performance and reliability required by today’s demanding applications, the iQ2850 iSCSI SAN system supports both FC and SATA disks for tiered storage. An ideal choice for your organization’s growing storage requirements, the scalable iQ2850 offers an affordable solution without sacrificing the embedded virtualization and SAN services needed to manage and protect your data. Scalable, affordable, feature-rich and easy to use, the iQ2850 is the intelligent storage solution.
Scalable
Modular expansion enables IT administrators to quickly add only the storage they need – when they need it – to prevent over-provisioning. The iQ2850 is a fifteen bay system that scales up to 240 bays by attaching optional J2880 expansion chassis.
With fully redundant and hot swappable components such as RAID controllers, power supplies, cooling modules and disk drives with hot spares, the iQ2850 ensures reliability and high availability.
Affordable
The iQ2850 iSCSI SAN combines the cost benefits and proven transport infrastructure of Ethernet to achieve lower total cost of ownership (TCO). Businesses can use their existing Ethernet infrastructure to implement an IP SAN without purchasing specialized host adapters, switches and cables. Familiar network technology reduces training, management and operational costs. IT administrators can cost-effectively optimize storage solutions for changing application and network environments.
Feature-Rich
The iQ2850 offers enterprise-level features including integrated data protection, volume manager-based storage virtualization, snapshot, mirroring, remote replication, policy based storage provisioning, dynamic capacity expansion, SAN management and remote support.
Easy To Use
Designed for rapid installation, simple management and seamless capacity expansion on demand, the iQ2850 is typically installed and configured in less than 30 minutes. The simple management GUI provides a single interface to manage your entire network storage solution.
