High performance with an Intel Xeon processor
The hardware core consists of an Intel Xeon D processor with a frequency of 1.9GHz, which handles demanding computing operations and virtualisation tasks. The manufacturer has fitted the device with 131072MB of DDR4 system RAM. This RAM can be further expanded up to 524288MB to increase performance when running a larger number of virtual machines. The motherboard contains a total of 8 memory slots, of which 4 are currently occupied.
Storage and SAS support
You can install both hard drives and SSDs with a SAS 12Gb/s interface into the 16 bays, supporting fast data transfers. Users can use 2.5" SAS SSDs, 2.5" SAS HDDs, and classic 3.5" SAS HDDs. The design supports the creation of RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 arrays to protect data from individual drive failure. The total supported capacity provides sufficient space for storing extensive company databases.
Fast network connection
The network storage includes a total of 14 LAN ports for connecting to your company's infrastructure. This configuration includes four high-speed 10GbE ports designed for transferring large volumes of data with low latency. The device reads stored data at a speed of 5773MB/s and writes at up to 2201MB/s. Four USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports on the chassis serve to connect additional external devices.
Expansion options
Four PCIe slots are available for expanding functionality, into which you can install additional network cards or controllers. The design supports SSD cache acceleration, which significantly speeds up system response time and access to more frequently read files. Users can also connect external expansion units to increase the total storage capacity. The system can thus handle future increases in generated data volume.
Reliability and continuous operation
For continuous operation, the storage uses a redundant 1400W power supply, which prevents outages in case of a failure in one of the power branches. The Hot-swap function facilitates the quick replacement of damaged hard drives or SSDs during operation without needing to shut down the entire system. The device operates reliably in a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C. The total weight of the empty server is 30.3kg.
Operating system
The QuTS hero operating system provides advanced tools for managing, securing, and sharing data on a corporate network. The system fully supports SAMBA, HFS, CIFS, and FTP file-sharing protocols. The storage serves as a web server or database server and can also handle recording from IP cameras or operating your own cloud storage. Virtualisation tools and support for iSCSI protocols are also available.
