Advantages of SAS Drives

Sunstar Company and NexSAN Technologies would like to introduce you to their new SASBoy Storage Array.



Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), the follow-on to parallel SCSI, is designed for high performance enterprise requirements.



SAS provides significant benefits to external storage subsystems and offers users "one-stop-shopping" to satisfy their requirements for the following three main data types.

Throughput Data: High MB/s and large data intensive files; Large block, random read/writes; Video streaming; CAD; Transaction Data; Reference Data

Transaction Data: Maximum IOP, calculation intensive files; Small block, random read/writes; Reservation systems; Billing systems

Reference Data: Large block, sequential writes / reads

SAS based external storage arrays (such as the NexSAN SASBoy) provide benefits in four areas: performance, availability, flexibility, scalability and cost of ownership.

SASBoy: High capacity – up to 4.2 TB in only 3U and Data Transfer Rates: Fibre: Up to 50,000 random IOPS from cache.

Many Thanks

Gavin
