2 | ThinkSystem DE Series Hybrid Flash Array

The DE4000H system uses hybrid storage models to optimize performance for mixed workloads, with outstanding low latency.

The DE6000H system offers top performance hybrid storage models, which support raw data-read-throughput rates of up to 21GBps.

Multiple viewpoints provided by graphical performance tools supply the key information about storage I/O that administrators need to further refine performance. These systems are targeted at backup and recovery, artificial intelligence workloads, Big Data/analytics, and virtualization, yet they work equally well in general computing environments.

DE Series combines comprehensive features with ease of use. ThinkSystem System Manager will lead you through the provisioning appropriate for your workload, or you can create your own. Dynamic drive pools (DDP) technology dramatically simplifies RAID management, requiring minimal decision-making on your part.

Advanced Data Protection

With DDP technology, there are no idle spares to manage, and you don’t need to reconfigure RAID when you expand your system. It distributes data parity information and spare capacity across a pool of drives to simplify the management of traditional RAID groups.

It also enhances data protection by enabling faster rebuilds after a drive failure. DDP dynamic-rebuild technology reduces the likelihood of another failure by using every drive in the pool for faster rebuilds.

The capability to dynamically rebalance data across all drives in the pool when drives are added or removed is one of the key features of DDP technology. A traditional RAID volume group is limited to a fixed number of drives. DDP, andererseits, lets you add or remove multiple drives in a single operation.

ThinkSystem DE Series Hybrid models offer advanced enterprise-class data protection, both locally and over long distance, einschließlich:

Schnappschuss / Bandexemplar
Asynchrone Spiegelung (DE6000H, DE4000H and DE2000H only)
Synchrone Spiegelung (DE6000H and DE4000H)

Secure Data, Secure Management

All drives get redeployed, im Ruhestand, oder gewartet. Wenn das passiert, you don’t want your sensitive data going out the door with them. Durch die Kombination der lokalen Schlüsselverwaltung mit der Verschlüsselung auf Laufwerksebene erhalten Sie umfassende Sicherheit für ruhende Daten ohne Auswirkungen auf die Leistung.

DE Series gives you the choice of how to manage the drive authentication keys: You can either do it yourself to reduce cost, or you can use a KMIP-compliant external key manager for easy centralized administration.
