Application QoS. Dedicate cache to specific applications and volumes to

enhance performance.

Configuration Flexibility. Dedicate to specific mission-critical applications, deploy as part of a first SAN in small enterprises, or integrate into a tiered storage infrastructure for archive, backup, or tape replacement in larger companies.

Ease of Management. Simplify configuration and storage administration through easy-to-use graphical user interfaces.

High Availability and Reliability. Leverage RAID-6 dual-parity striping for more reliable rebuild in the rare event of a disk drive failure; maximize uptime with redundant hot-pluggable components and the high-reliability Hitachi SATA implementation.

Business Continuity. Leverage in-system replication and backup software to shrink backup windows and expedite recovery from application failures.

Lower TCO. Maximize storage utilization, centralize management of storage through consolidation, improve storage administrators’ productivity, and reduce downtime.

Network Storage Controller Model NSC55

If your organization seeks additional functionality beyond that provided by Adaptable Modular Storage or Workgroup Modular Storage, such as mainframe connection or heterogeneous systems management, the Network Storage Controller, model NSC55, can provide the functionality you need within a modular, rackmounted, small-footprint package.

The NSC55 supports advanced storage management and data replication features previously not available in this class of storage, delivering mainframe as well as heterogeneous multiplatform connectivity via Fibre Channel, IBM® ESCON® and FICON®, NAS, and iSCSI. With the NSC55 you can retain your heterogeneous systems, aggregate them into a virtual pool, deploy them in tiered architectures, manage them through a single console, and replicate critical data using a common set of tools. By maximizing the use of your existing resources and enhancing their functionality, the NSC55 allows you to simplify your storage environment and reduce total cost of ownership.
