Spectra Logic Doubles Capacity of Disk Appliance
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on Fri, May 7th, 2010
Up to 120TB in 4U
Spectra Logic Corp. announced the availability of the 120 terabyte Spectra nTier700 disk appliance.
With the addition of 2TB drives in the nTier700, Spectra continues its leadership in high capacity storage for backup and archive. Customers can now achieve 120TB of storage and have 16 gigabytes (GB) of memory available to backup and archive applications that run locally on the 4U nTier700, for as low as $1.00 per GB.
“With the new high capacity 2TB drives, the nTier700 platform provides an extremely scalable, high-density backup and archive solution – at a significantly reduced cost per gigabyte,” said Molly Rector, vice president of marketing and product management for Spectra Logic. “In addition, Spectra’s nTier disk appliances are the only integrated disk and application platforms that offer direct integration with tape for long term backup and storage.”
The Spectra nTier700 can be configured with up to six storage blades, each containing 10 drives. Blades can be easily added to the nTier700 appliance as capacity requirements increase, and can be configured with 1TB or 2TB drives to grow in 10TB or 20TB increments, for a maximum capacity of 120TB in a single 4U chassis. The integrated application server can be utilized to host backup and archive applications, acting as the media server, to offer a complete application media server along with cost effective, high density disk storage in a single appliance.
The Spectra nTier700 higher capacity drives provide increased flexibility in fast-growing data environments. It offers high reliability, efficient remote data replication, and support for backup and archive applications including deduplication, replication, disk-to-tape backup, tiered storage services and backup software applications for continuous data protection.
The nTier700 is compatible with all major archive and backup software applications including but not limited to: BakBone NetVault, CA ArcServe and BrightStor, CommVault Simpana, IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Legato Networker, QStar Archive Management, Symantec Backup Exec and NetBackup, Syncsort Backup Express and XenData Digital Archive.
Availability
The Spectra nTier700 with 2TB drives is available today. The Spectra nTier700 offers 'plug and play' upgrading with no additional licensing or software required. Additional memory can be purchased as an option to support ISV-based deduplication functionality.
