Dell/Equallogic PS5000 Series

Introducing the Dell/EqualLogic PS5000 Storage Arrays...

Dell has launched the PS Series as its midrange iSCSI SAN product line, including an entirely new PS5000E model with 1TB SATA II drives for 16 TB of raw capacity.

In less than 20 minutes after opening the box, with just a few simple steps and without special expertise, you can have an enterprise-class SAN that can be provisioned as needed - simply, seamlessly and without downtime.

Enterprise Reliability

Each Equallogic PS series array offers fully-redundant, hot-swappable components including controllers, fan trays, and power supplies. Support for RAID 5,10,50, hot drive sparing, automatic failover and rebuild, and patent-pending proactive media error detection delivers 99.999% data availability.

Enterprise Performance

Starting with 300 MB/sec per modular array and proven scalability in IOPS to meet demanding transactional workloads, the EqualLogic PS Series delivers unmatched performance in its class. Automatic load balancing seamlessly moves data across all active RAID sets, maximizing performance by intelligently optimizing network connections, cache, and controllers in real time.

Enterprise Data Services

The PS Series comes standard with a comprehensive set of software features including virtual volume management and application-aware space-efficient snapshots for instant backup and restore, volume cloning for rapid server provisioning, auto-replication, multi-path I/O support, and cluster support for comprehensive disaster recovery.

Choose the PS Series array that fits your requirements today with the confidence that you can scale to meet future needs - without a forklift upgrade or application downtime.

For those already familiar with EqualLogic products:

Dell/EqualLogic PS5000E replaces the EqualLogic PS50E, PS70E, PS100E, PS300E and PS400E and adds a new model with 1TB drives

PS5000XV succeeds the PS3900XV and the PS3800X

PS5000X replaces the PS3700X.
As with all previous EqualLogic models, the new PS5000 series arrays can be grouped with all other EqualLogic PS Series arrays.

Infoworld logo"Equallogic's PS3800XV iSCSI array represents the highly evolved state of iSCSI SAN arrays with panache. Fully featured and blazingly fast, this SAS-based array will easily find a home in infrastructures of any size, although the cost will keep it out of smaller shops. For infrastructures that don't need 2Gb or 4Gb Fibre Channel, and most don't, iSCSI is the way to go, and EqualLogic is showing us all how it's done."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The phrase Dog Days or "the dog days of summer", refers to the hottest, most sultry days of summer. They are a phenomenon of the northern hemisphere that usually falls between early July and early September but the actual dates vary greatly from region to region, depending on latitude and climate.

The term "Dog Days" was used by the Greeks (see, e.g., Aristotle's Physics, 199a2), as well as the ancient Romans (who called these days caniculares dies (days of the dogs)) after Sirius (the "Dog Star"), the brightest star in the heavens besides the Sun.

The Dog Days originally were the days when Sirius, the Dog Star, rose just before or at the same time as sunrise (heliacal rising), which is no longer true owing to precession of the equinoxes. The ancients sacrificed a brown dog at the beginning of the Dog Days to appease the rage of Sirius, believing that that star was the cause of the hot, sultry weather.
