X2 2Gb Fibre Channel Storage Array



Contact Microway's Storage Expert Now

The X2 storage array delivers unprecedented performance and data protection. Based on 2Gbit fibre-channel technology, the fully redundant, highly-available storage system can be configured as the core of a Storage Area Network (SAN) solution or as a direct-attached storage array. The modular 3U rack-mount design, provides the flexibility to easily scale up to 18TB of storage capacity with a single X2 storage director. Multiple X2 storage directors can then be interconnected for virtually unlimited capacity expansion.

The X2's management software allows for such features as on-line capacity expansion and non-disruptive software upgrades. Server deployment is also simplified by enabling on-the-fly volume allocation and/or redistribution. Dynamic multi-pathing software provides automatic load-balancing, I/O distribution and fail-over. These features coupled with unparalleled service and support, including StorageWatch® help to eliminate unplanned downtime and make the X2 ideal for all storage infrastructure requirements.
