Cybernetics Increases SAN Capacity

Cybernetics announced the
availability of 4TB HDDs in its SAN Storage Virtual Disk solutions.

Whether the  miSAN D series or their powerhouse iSAN D series, harness
the increased speed and capacity of the new 4TB HDDs and maximize
performance at a minimal price.

The miSAN D Series and iSAN D Series are scalable SAN storage
solutions with up to 96TB of raw capacity, per unit, expandable to up to 768TB. Writing in multiple concurrent, parallel data streams – with up to 1.2 GB/s
speeds – the iSAN D Series is for
enterprise storage requirements, while the miSAN D Series is for SMBs.

"All the processing power
in the world cannot overcome network connectivity limitations on a SAN,"
says Cybernetics’ VP of R&D, Martin Aherron. "For this reason, Cybernetics incorporates eight GbE ports on the iSAN D
Series, which can be upgraded to 10 GbE. Even the smallest entry-level miSAN D
Series models include five GbE ports. Each 125 MB/s port has an independent IP
address, and is compatible with MPIO/load balancing to sustain blazing transfer
rates between the SAN and network servers. Because the Cybernetics hardware
models have the physical connections to transfer the exceptional performance
within the SAN, the iSAN supports up to 1.2 GB/s and the miSAN supports up to
500 MB/s."

SAN storage virtualization enables benefits for maximizing
utilization through storage resource consolidation, emphasizing the importance
of instantaneous and automatic data protection. miSAN D Series and
iSAN D Series incorporate layers of protection against all types of threats to
data, including snapshot backup, portable disk backup, tape backup, and
encrypted, deduplicated WAN replication – all without a dedicated backup server
or third-party software.
