VX-3428R Series base unit shown with one VX-3410R expansion shelf.
The VX-3400 Series supports up to 112 disk drives and scales to 448 TB with six expansion shelves and 4 TB disk drives. VX-3400 systems are available for SAS hosts, iSCSI hosts or Fibre Channel hosts. VX-3400 provides the highest total capacity and lowest cost per terabyte in a single system.
VX-3400 virtualized tiered storage expands to 448 TB with 112 disks to 4 TB in seven shelves with 16 drives each. It provides performance, reliability, advanced storage services and features FlashD2D - a unique scheduled, zero-downtime disk-to-disk backup. Its FlashDisk Global Manager provides a centralized management pane for all FlashDisk VX Series systems installed and centralized event notifications. This makes it very easy to manage a large, flexible virtual and tiered storage pool including primary storage, snapshot images and mirror volumes. It offers storage based or server based replication (CA ARC-serve Replication) for business continuity and disaster recovery.
VX-3400 supports single or dual redundant controllers with mirrored cache for SAS, iSCSI, 10 GbE, Fibre Channel or “Multi-Protocol RAID” with either Fibre Channel or SAS plus iSCSI hosts.
The VX-3400 is a “SAN-In-A-Box” that can attach to multiple hosts without switches. FlashDisk delivers exceptional performance with nearly 2,900 MB per second data throughput using SAS 6 Gb disk drives and 48 Gb SAS backend expansion buses. High performance TrueRAID6, with dedicated hardware ASIC for high speed dual distributed parity, protects against two simultaneous drive failures and ensures fast and successful disk rebuilds.
