Dell EqualLogic PS6000E Series
The PS6000E is an
enterprise-class iSCSI SAN ideal for organizations looking to consolidate
storage cost-effectively without sacrificing capabilities. The EqualLogic peer
storage architecture delivers a capable and affordable SAN that is extremely
simple to manage and has an all-inclusive software suite which helps reduce
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Whether you are looking for a storage solution that solves tactical problems and
can easily scale to meet your strategic goals, or you know you require more than
one hundred terabytes from the start, the PS6000E’s modular scalability can
assure you a SAN to fit your needs.
The PS6000E line spans from 2 to 16TB in capacity in a single array, utilizing
SATA drives ranging from 250GB to 1TB. It is built from fully redundant,
hot-swappable enterprise hardware. For applications that don’t demand
mission-critical redundancy, there are dual controller configurations of the
PS6000E that make it even more cost-effective. Built-in software functionality
includes SAN HQ Multi-SAN historical performance monitoring, automatic load
balancing, Microsoft and VMware application integration, snapshots and
replication, multi-path I/O, consistency sets, thin provisioning and much more.
Seamlessly integrated with all other PS Series
storage arrays, the PS6000E expands your ability to optimize performance and
capacity using storage pools and tiers matched to application demands. And with
online data movement between tiers, you gain flexibility to adjust without
disruption as your business evolves.
