Nexsan NAS own line, E5000 Platform Weaves

Nexsan Corporation, Network Attached Storage (NAS) is given on another occasion. Today and spread the supplier to improve performance of software caching, a file with the IP provider and solid state drives (SSD) has launched a range of uses Nexsan NAS E5000 platform.

Nexsan NAS went on the road with its partners in the past. In 2008, the Windows Unified Data Storage Server (WUDSS), a manufacturer of storage devices connected to a NAS gateway (called Edge) published. The channel package for low-end NAS head and ONStor storage Nexsan joined the meeting.

This time, Nexsan NAS E5000 M-series to set up their own Assureon CAS (Content Addressable Storage) technology-based and block Using Series arrays.

"This is the first NAS product for control of the stack. We must rely on the vision of someone in the roadmap," Gary Watson, Nexsan founder and Chief Technology Officer said. "This is the beginning of the family. I have a roadmap in front of us."

The roadmap includes a unified storage, Nexsan NAS E5110 E5310 and models, but there are now. Both use the SSD cache FASTI Nexsan D / S applications, improves the performance of workloads.

FASTtier SSD cache, such as reading and DRAM PCI card, single-level cell (SLC) and the company multi-level cell (eMLC) flashes. Write support multi-technology

E5000 systems support for CIFS and NFS. Nexsan except to say that the elements of Unix administrators, there was more information on the file system. "We Assureon Series E and technology base for us to create products that people say, but we want the freedom to make the cover of" Don Chouinard, Nexsan, director of product marketing.

3U or 6U configuration E5110 8 TB 62 TB capacity with 100 GB SSD option comes with a couple of checks and balances. This controller by two Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and two optional 10-GbE controller with up to 31 discs on a platform for expansion there.

3U dual controller model 5310 with a capacity of 9 TB 720 TB cache scales up to 1.5 TB FASTI. 18 to 240 discs. Device, E18, and SATA, 7200 rpm SAS 15,000 RPM SAS supports the E60 NL-block can be extended with Nexsan storage arrays. 5310 four GbE ports per controller, and includes two optional 10 GbE.

E5310's price band to $ 82,000 $ 183,000 depending on the combination of E18 and E60 expansion rack while the E5110 price is listed as $ 15 000.

E5000 preparation for the functions of the software online, pictures, less the amount of replication and includes the Active Directory and LDAP integration.

Watson FASTI virtualized server environments, I / O is optimized to handle applications, he said. "FAST media helps a lot faster," he VMware and Hyper-V applications, and the effect of being a random mixture of the cache in a blender, the workload of the SSD has a faster”, he said. "

E5000 model, operating system, hard to read-only memory (ROM) because it is the Terri McClure, senior analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group, as the memory controller in the operating system. This speeds up the opening, and other system functions and performance, reliability and help to implement caching for the SSD sense.

McClure, E-Management Center graphical user interface, compared to Apple. Swimming, photography, volume management, asynchronous replication and high availability using clustering wizards help you create a graphical user interface.

"I grew up with this Apple product will appeal to a new generation of storage administrators," he said. "At the same time, a storage manager is not necessarily good for small businesses and medium enterprises ".
