Are You Ready for the Bake Off?

We'd be lying if we told you that Dell EqualLogic was the only iSCSI SAN platform out there, but we're entirely comfortable telling you that it's the one you should choose. When you're ready for the 'bake-off' we'd love to show you why WE sell more EqualLogic arrays than all the other vendors arrays put together...

EqualLogic 10GbE - Here, Now and Faster than Fibre

image

For a long time Fibre Channel storage vendors boasted about higher bandwidth connectivity into their arrays. Old school fibre channel buyers thought that Gigabit Ethernet iSCSI might compromise storage performance. We knew that wasn't the case, but if you're looking for high bandwidth it doesn't get fatter than this! Four 10GbE connections per array = blazing fast iSCSI!

Dell EqualLogic PS6500E Sumo iSCSI SAN 48TBThe Dell EqualLogic PS6500E (Aka SUMO) is a high-density virtualised storage array that can deliver a hugely scalable iSCSI SAN. Like the rest of the EqualLogic PS Series, it combines intelligence and automation with fault tolerance to provide simplified administration, rapid deployment, enterprise performance and reliability, and seamless scalability.

With up to 48 TB of SATA storage in a 4U chassis, the PS6500E virtual storage appliance delivers the lowest cost-per-gigabyte in the EqualLogic family. Users can scale out capacity and performance together by combining with additional arrays for a virtualized iSCSI SAN that can grow up to 768 TB under a single management interface.

With SATA drives this appliance is ideal for use as production storage, as a backup target or archive component in a multi-array deployment. Individual PS6500E arrays can be deployed at RAID 10, RAID 50, RAID 5 or RAID 6 to offer the best possible combination of performance and capacity.

IOPs performance is comparable to three PS6000E SATA appliances, or a single PS6000XV 15K SAS appliance. Currently PS6500E iSCSI SAN virtual storage appliances can only be combined with other PS5500E,  PS6500E and PS6500X appliances in the same storage pool, the addition of multiple RAID levels in the PS6500 series arrays allows a tiered storage model to be created.
