When we went deep on Dell PowerStore Gen 3 earlier this year, the story was hardware, and there was plenty of it. Dell rebuilt the platform from the chassis up: 40 E3.S NVMe bays in 3U with no slots burned on cache, a 200GbE RDMA midplane between controllers that is decoupled from CPU generations, Software-Defined
Deskside AI systems built on NVIDIA’s GB10 have one job, and they do it well: put 128GB of unified memory and a petaflop of compute on a desk close enough to the person using it that iteration is instant. What they don’t have is a connection to the storage an organization already runs. Every DGX
High availability has moved from a data center luxury to a line item in ordinary resiliency planning. Small businesses and edge sites now run point-of-sale, surveillance, and shared storage that cost money every minute they are down, yet the classic answer, a dual-controller enterprise array, is sized and priced for the data center rather than
The Enterprise NAS (ENAS) is Ubiquiti’s first run at more enterprise-lite business storage. The 3U chassis holds 16 hot-swap drive bays, an eight-core Arm Neoverse N2 processor, 64GB of ECC memory, dual 25GbE SFP28 ports, and redundant hot-swap 550W power supplies, all for $3,999 MSRP. One pricing note: Ubiquiti’s store currently applies a memory surcharge
Storage refreshes usually come in two flavors. There’s the quiet uplift, where a vendor rolls in a new CPU, claims a few percentage points of performance, and ships the same chassis with a different sticker. And then there’s the generational reset, where the chassis, drives, interconnect, cache architecture, and management plane all move at once.
Since we first brought the QLC-based PowerStore 3200Q with PowerStoreOS 4.0 into the lab, Dell hasn’t slowed down. The company has expanded the lineup with the PowerStore 5200Q—a higher-performance, cost-optimized model built for a broader range of production workloads. At the same time, three major software releases (PowerStoreOS 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3) have added meaningful capabilities across the platform,
QSAN XN4 series delivers high availability for unified block and file storage, supporting a broad set of protocols including NVMe-oF over TCP and RDMA.
Graid SupremeRAID AE delivers powerful, GPU-accelerated RAID, redefining storage performance and resilience for demanding AI workloads.
NetApp ASA delivers simplified, high-performance SAN storage with streamlined deployment, ONTAP integration, and deep VMware support.
