One clear message heard from small and medium businesses
is that their data is as valuable to their organizations
as data is to the enterprise customer. In fact, small
businesses are experiencing even faster data growth
and are discovering that their storage and data protection
requirements have more similarities than differences,
relative to large enterprises.
Small businesses can take an overburdened internal
storage infrastructure to a new level by using the
flexible and affordable IBM System Storage™ DS3200
storage system. By moving storage outside the server,
small businesses can increase the capacity and reliability
of the data solution well beyond the initial storage
investment. And with SAS and SATA drive intermix support,
the DS3200 can be optimized with the right workload
demand utilizing the appropriate drive technology.
Select configurations of the DS3200 are part of the
IBM Express Portfolio™, designed and priced to meet
the needs of mid-sized businesses. The Express models
combine the DS3200 storage system with the IBM SAS
HBA Controllers and SAS cables to help you get started
with storage quickly.
