xStack Storage® 4x1GbE iSCSI SAN Array with 5 SATA Bays
utilization and performance in an application
dependent manner. Volatile cache data protection
is afforded via an on-board battery supporting cache
memory for a minimum of 72 hours. A write-back
or write-through cache memory policy can be
selected manually or automatically, depending on
the status of the battery's charge.
The DSN-1100-10 supports jumbo frames and VLAN
tagging to segregate traffic into isolated zones for
secure access, improving network throughput and
reducing CPU overhead.
D-Link's volume virtualization technology utilizes
the concept of storage extents, which are the
fundamental building blocks used to enable
features such as RAID, online capacity expansion,
volume reconfiguration and migration. Each disk
D SN- 1100- 10 i SC SI SAN Ar ray
drive can contain multiple and divergent RAID
configurations instead of requiring dedication to
a single RAID set. This technology allows for the
support of mixed disk drive capacities for volume
creation. Volume capacity expansion, volume
reconfiguration and RAID level migration are
performed online with minimal impact to users.
An iSCSI SAN array can prove to be a valuable tool
to supplement a network storage foundation.
Whether providing a low-cost block-based solution
for data backup and recovery, replacement of Direct
Attached Storage (DAS), providing secondary online
storage, or providing up to 425 MB/s bandwidth
for security surveillance, video editing, video post
production applications, the DSN-1100-10 may
provide the performance and functionality needed.
