NEWBURY PARK, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
iQstor Networks, Inc., a leading developer of intelligent and integrated Storage
Area Network (SAN) solutions, announced today that it has qualified the Hitachi
GST`s enterprise-class 7,200 RPM 2TB Ultrastar A7K2000 hard disk drive.
Hitachi`s Ultrastar A7K2000 2TB hard drives have been fully integrated for use
with its iQ2880 4Gb/s FC and iQ2850 iSCSI storage systems and the J2880 Switched
JBOD (SBOD) disk expansion enclosure.
"We are pleased to qualify Hitachi`s 2TB disk drive for use with our intelligent
storage systems for the enterprise data center, which scale to 480TB total
storage capacity," said Jason Lo, president and CEO of iQstor Networks. "We are
committed to delivering to our customers the highest level of investment
protection and the iQ2880 and iQ2850 storage systems and J2880 SBOD offer vastly
improved performance and increased capacity while maintaining our promise of
delivering cost-effective storage solutions that are easy to deploy, easy to
manage and easy to scale."
iQstor`s iQ2880 and iQ2850 are scalable, affordable, simple to use and
self-managing storage systems with enterprise-level features including volume
management-based virtualization, snapshot, volume-copy, remote replication,
policy-based capacity expansion, database agents and multipath drivers. Both the
iQ2880 and iQ2850 support fifteen 2TB SATA drives providing 30TB of redundant,
fault tolerant storage capacity and scale to 480TB through connectivity with the
J2880 SBOD disk enclosure.
The modular J2880 SBOD enables IT administrators to quickly and cost-effectively
optimize and scale their storage solutions, enabling enterprises to grow their
network storage from a small expansion system to very large tiered-storage SAN
systems. Easily connected to iQ2880/iQ2850 subsystems, each 19" 3U rack
mountable J2880 includes fifteen disk drives for a total capacity of 30TB.
