Nexsan iE60™ Overview
The Nexsan E60™ is Nexsan's next generation of high-density and energy-efficient RAID storage, upping the ante over previous generations by delivering a storage solution that accommodates 60 disks. As such, the E60 is significantly faster than our BEAST family of products. It provides 120TBs in only 4U and, thanks to Nexsan's AutoMAID® technology, reduces energy costs by up to 87% - making it the most energy-efficient enterprise-class storage system on the market.
The E60 contains four 8Gbit Fibre Channel ports, with the ability in the future to add a second IO card, and two 1Gbit iSCSI ports to deliver more bandwidth and connectivity. The E60 seamlessly combines SATA, SAS, and SSD drives to give IT administrators a high degree of flexibility, and its innovative active drawer technology allows the E60 to be safely serviced by one person while remaining in full production - a significant improvement over competitive systems that typically require several people to replace a single disk or fan.
As with all Nexsan solutions, the E60 is built for enterprise-class applications, providing tier-1 full redundancy and high performance at tier- 2 prices. It's very easy to install and use. And the E60 includes Highly Efficient Storage (HES) technologies that provide a combination of cost-effective high density, space efficiency and Nexsan's AutoMAID® (Massive Array of Idle Disks) energy-saving technology, which enables the E60 to save up to 87% in energy costs.
