Products : Hitachi Simple Modular Storage 100

• Flexible connectivity options:
  
  • iSCSI controller model with single or dual controllers (two or four 1Gb/sec Ethernet ports)
  • Fibre Channel controller model with dual controllers (four 4Gb/sec Fibre Channel ports)
• High Availability:
  Simple Modular Storage offers storage with no single point of failure using RAID-6 configuration for non-disruptive operation. RAID-6 configuration ensures data will not be lost even in the unlikely event that two drives can fail at the same time.
• Simple Maintenance and Recovery:
  Should a disk drive fail, Hitachi Simple Modular Storage will continue to operate as if nothing happened. The easy-to-use Hitachi Storage Navigator Modular 2 will notify you that a drive has malfunctioned and direct you to contact the support center, which will send a replacement.

  Data protection tasks are simplified with a point-and-click, graphical user interface or GUI-based Hitachi Copy-on-Write Snapshot software. This software quickly replicates volume changes via point-in-time snapshots without impacting host server performance.
• Hitachi ShadowImage® Replication:
  Optional software is available to create multiple copies of any accessible data within a Simple Modular Storage model.
