16-Bay iSCSI-to-SAS RAID-System
The easyRAID Q16R-8GR3 iSCSI-to-SAS RAID systems features dual RAID controller, each with an IOP341 CPU, 16 SAS/SATA/SSD drive bays, fully modularized components, hot swappable power supplies and fans to reduce the amount of operating downtime for maintenance. System setup is simple using web browser allowing easy remote configuration and monitoring.
easyRAID Q16S-8GR3 is VMWARE certified.
Copy-on-Write snapshot functionality is built into the controller to help protect your data.
iSCSI protocol uses TCP/IP to transfer data, which only requires an ethernet interface, and enables easy integration into your current network infrastructure.
iSCSI encapsulates SCSI commands and data into TCP/IP packets to transfer through an ethernet network.
By using TCP/IP to transfer ensures that the transmission is successful and provides a reliable means of transferring data. Also, by using your current network infrastructure reduces the total cost of ownership.
Features and Benefits
- Up to 600MB/s Data Transfer Rate with RAID Level 5. It is possible to adjust the performance settings for the needed application like database application, video surveillance, backup and others
- This newly added feature provides users the option to attach up to three JBOD units to expand the capacity of their storage solution
- RAID Level 6 improves over the industry standard RAID Level 5 by adding another parity disk, which gives greater reliability and data protection
