Dell EMC Unity 450F All-Flash Storage Review

The Dell EMC Unity family of storage is designed to meet the needs of the midrange customer with a variety of options including hybrid, all-flash and VSA deployment options.

戴尔易安信Unity 450F全闪存存储测评

戴尔易安信Unity系列存储旨在满足中端客户的需求,提供多种选项,包括混合、全闪存和VSA部署选项。戴尔易安信Unity存储取代了以前的易安信VNX系列。不过,要说它是VNX的一个演进,并不完全准确;易安信早在2014年的VNXe中基本上已经开始了开发:完全改进了界面,并继续进行易用性和部署开发。界面是全新的,底层代码也已经更新。Unity阵列包括一个2U机箱,该机箱带有由Intel Xeon处理器提供动力的双主动/主动控制器和25个2.5英寸驱动器托架(对于混合版本,还可以选择12个3.5英寸托架)。系统可扩展以提供更大的容量,戴尔易安信利用固态硬盘中的TLC闪存,使得它更为经济。系统支持数据块、文件和VMware VVol,同时支持本机NAS、iSCSI和光纤通道协议。全闪存系统(或与全闪存池混合的系统)包括数据缩减功能,可进一步提高TCO。所有戴尔易安信Unity阵列都可以轻松地分层到云,并通过CloudIQ提供基于云的分析,而无需额外投资。
