Storage Systems | management | no storage expertise, these systems can be setup and actively serving files in |
|
| minutes. |
| Integrated and adaptiveA single storage solution that can respond to a wide variety of business | |
| storage solutions to | needs. HP |
| enable business growth and flexibility by providing shared storage for multiple application servers, | |

| effective solution for | application storage (iSCSI Target), file serving (NAS), and data protection |
| growing application | below the cost of separate products and without the need to change your |
| environments | infrastructure. |
|
| NOTE: A dedicated segment is recommended for your iSCSI traffic and can |
|
| be implemented using standard Ethernet hardware you probably already |
|
| have. |
| Easy to manage because it uses terms and functions familiar to application | |
| storage management | administrators. Includes |
