With its full two gigabit
per second Fibre Channel connectivity, the StorageTek
D240 disk subsystem provides 77,500 IOPS to meet the
requirements of throughput-intensive database
applications. This mid-range disk subsystem scales to
more than 16 terabytes, making it well suited to
open-systems workgroup storage consolidation and data
replication applications. |

|
|
Applications |
Disk
mirroring
With Remote Volume Mirroring, the D240 disk system
has complete synchronous and asyncronous disk
mirroring functionality. It can be used as a local
mirror for sharing or distributing data, or as a
remote mirror for rapid disaster recovery. |
Storage
consolidation
The D240 disk system has the capacity and management
to consolidate storage for multiple workgroups or
departments. With SANtricity Storage Manager™
software, management and configuration tasks are
centralized with an easy-to-use interface.
|
Online
transaction processing
The D240 disk system has the I/O performance needed
to support transaction-heavy online transaction
processing applications. Application growth is not
constrained, since the D240 disk system data can be
easily migrated to other D-Series disk systems.
|
|
|
Benefits |
Increased
customer satisfaction
The D240 system’s high-speed disk performance gives
you the throughput you need to improve transaction
rates and increase customer satisfaction. |
Higher
availability
The D240 system helps you increase the availability
of business applications through online
administration, redundant components and dual I/O
paths with transparent failover. |
Centralized management
With SANtricity™ Storage Manager software, you can
manage the D240 disk subsystem from anywhere in your
business with an easy-to-use graphic user interface. |
Investment protection
Modular pay-as-you-grow scalability enables you to
buy what you need today and expand as your storage
needs change. Or you can easily migrate to the
larger D178 or D280 systems without costly forklift
upgrades. |
|
|
Features |
Two
gigabit Fibre Channel connectivity
The D240 disk subsystem’s two gigabit per second
host-side connectivity supports direct-attachments
to hosts or storage area networks. |
Multi-platform support
With its extremely open architecture, the D240 disk
subsystem supports major UNIX, Linux and Windows
operating systems. |
SAN
readiness
Fabric login support and multi-host heterogeneous
support combine to help you realize the full
potential of storage area networks. |
