(2) Disk Drive Usage
In M-Series products, disk enclosures can include a mix of SSD, SAS HDD and NL-SAS HDDs. M-
Series products provide more flexibility of choices; SAS Disk Drive for mission-critical systems that
require high-performance and non-stop operation or NL-SAS HDD for systems that require low-cost
and the backup with large capacity.

(2-1) NL-SAS HDD

NL-SAS HDD is ideal for the systems that do not require high performance but large capacity at low
cost as follows:
1. Large data sets (Web, Images, Research and development data, E-mail)
2. Disk backup
3. Archive – Data protection (VolumeProtect)
4. Replication between arrays (RemoteDataReplication) – RV (Replication Volume)
5. Replication within the same array (DynamicDataReplication) – RV (Replication Volume)
6. Snapshot (DynamicSnapVolume) – SV (Snapshot Volume)
7. File Server
(2-2) SAS HDD
SAS HDD is excellent in performance, capacity and reliability. It is ideal for mission-critical systems
that require high-performance at low cost as follows:
1. Frequently accessed database
2. Mission-critical applications
