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!

The Dell EqualLogic PS4000xv iSCSI SAN array offers the best IOPs performance in the PS4000 series. Based upon 15K SAS (serial attached SCSI) disk, the PS4000XV offers approximately three times the performance of the SATA PS4000e.

The PS4000xv can be confidently deployed in production or disaster recovery. In production, the PS4000xv will comfortably host multiple data volumes or a combination of data volumes and VMware, Citrix (XENserver) or Microsoft virtual machines.

Each array can be configured at RAID 10, 50, 5 or 6 depending on the space/performance characteristics required. With each option data is intelligently striped across all active disks in the appliance to ensure maximum IOPS throughput is delivered.

EqualLogic offer a fully inclusive licensing model, which means that all current and future features are included in the price of the array.
