Tiered Storage

Sunstar company would like to make you aware that we can carry a line of storage that supports both SATA and SAS drives within the same chassis.

NexSAN recently released Tiered Storage in both their 14 Bay and 42 Bay chassis. Many of our clinets see absolute value in tiering their storage. In the recent past they had no option but to add another shelf of storage. This is no longer the case. NexSAN has thoroughly tested their solutions with 15K and 7.2K disk drives and they run just fine. Speed and heat is not an issue.
Consider adding a second controller within the chassis supporting mixed drives and your performance will jump.

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
