A storage solution that defies gravity
15/06/2010
Growth in data doesn’t necessarily mean growth in complexity. There is a new generation of storage system that defies the regular conventions of time, space and efficiency without comprising on functionality.
The IBM XIV is a low total cost, grid-based storage solution designed to deliver unparalleled speed and consistent high performance with revolutionary self-healing (rebuilds a 1 TB drive in 40 minutes or less). It actually becomes faster as you add more storage to it, increasing performance.
It’s amazingly easy to use and comes with brilliant new features:
- Double the capacity – IBM XIV uses 2TB drives to double the capacity of the system without slowing down. With its unique grid architecture, XIV continually utilises the 2TB drives, instead of regulating data to the archive pool.
- On-demand back up – Now the XIV includes on demand copies and instantaneous snapshots, created when you want with its snapshot mirror capability. Want a backup? Just press a button.
Win an exhilarating zero gravity flight.
Clients who book a meeting with a Frontline XIV Specialist between now and 30 August 2010 are eligible to win a Zero Gravity Flight experience.
Enter now and learn why XIV is the grid storage solution of the future.
The IBM XIV Grid solution provides exceptional value for the world you’ll encounter tomorrow.
