The Dell EqualLogic PS6000XV series iSCSI SAN virtual storage arrays are based upon either Eight or Sixteen 300GB or 450GB 15K Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) disk drives, with total raw capacity ranging from 2.4TB to 7.2TB. Data is striped across all drives within the array to achieve the optimum combination of performance and capacity. 15K SAS disk offers the highest spinning disk performance levels in the PS 6000 Series.
The RAID level within the appliance can be RAID 10 (high performance, reduced capacity) RAID 50 (good performance, good capacity) or RAID 5 (capacity optimised). All drives are subject to an extended burn-in process before sale, leading to a negligible DOA failure rate.
As with all PS Series arrays, the Dell EqualLogic PS6000XV benefits from the full hardware redundancy and the fully inclusive licensing model - see PS Series Overvew for further details.
Numerous real-world capacity planning exercises and production deployments have demonstrated to us that the PS6000XV iSCSI SAN virtual storage array can comfortably and reliably support multi-server physical and virtual environments, including many high transactional workloads such as SQL server applications or Microsoft Exchange.
